Unforgivness actually keeps you weighed down. Forgiveness actually releases the victim from the trauma. It’s not easy but definatley necessary

[@lanaesherie88]

​@@CONE57CONE57 well said...and you are absolutely right.. forgiving ppl is for yourself the other person (especially in this case since she's passed) couldn't care less..it keeps YOU in bondage..like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die..it will consume your thoughts and eat you alive.I know this from experience.

[@mysterydiaz5302]

I agree that it is not victims job to forgive the abuser. We need to find a way to acknowledge it as deeply as we possibly can and then let it go. We can come to understand how those people that abused us got to that point so to understand it is a gift to have it in perspective as a gift then you don’t have to let it go it just fades away.

[@mysryuza]

@@CONE57CONE57 You shouldn’t owe your abusers forgiveness, if the abuser has no genuine remorse in what they did, there is no point in forgiving them. Forgiving is letting go of the resentment and vengeance towards someone that has harmed you. Victims shouldn’t have to forgive them.

[@lisaredeemed5679]

As a survivor of horrific abuse and torture, I always advocate forgiving your abusers. Our souls need peace. But forgiveness isn't condoning the treatment, nor is it continuing the abusive relationships. It's an acceptance and release of bitterness. This is important for the soul's growth and evolution in peace and balance within self. Holding grudges poisons you from within and keeps you in victim mode and mentally and emotionally fractured. When one is unhealed, they constantly blame, shame, and project their anger and pain onto others and this is unacceptable. It's not our fault how people treated us, but it's our responsibility to be away from them and heal from the trauma.

Jennette’s mothers situation growing up is remarkably similar to my own although unlike Jeanette I was blessed to have a caring mother. Jennette is a truly strong woman deserving of recognition and praise unlike the false idols and celebrities that are paraded around as being the figures young people should look up to.

[@anitadarling4592]

Yeah it honestly seems like she still already did. Forgiveness is not excusing their behavior and hurt that they’ve inflicted on you. It’s not even about liking or respecting the person again. Why would anyone like or respect someone who would still hurt you throughout your life. No one would want anyone else to go through this but I’m not talking about staying at hating them forever even though that’s normal at first realization, because there is no rest from stress for those that stay angry at them. She needed to heal and find her own identity without her for once. It’s so hard since she did not have a positive mother figure either when that’s all she needed. Forgiving simply letting go and not letting her and her huge painful and abusive actions of the past steal your joy. It’s more about self healing than excusing the other person. I didn’t know that someone hearing that what they have been through was abuse could cause a panic of their entire life and deny it to protect their past life and identity since her mom orchestrated her identity. I only see that after she explained it herself. It’s so heartbreaking that everyone knows her at the price of all of this abuse when she needed to be a kid with a good family. I pray that she is slowly but surely getting better with all the support she needs. This is very tough.

[@sheawhitey5009]

A lot of these parents whose whose child become Stars once they start seeing that money flow in they want to tell her child shut the fuk up know Your role we're getting paid. Gary Coleman look at all of them look at all their parents help evil how money changes people very quickly. BUT, the one thing that should never change. Is the security and protection of your child and their well-being at all costs. She ever notice how some people rise to fame, and that you don't hear from him like if he dropped off the face of the Earth it's because they're giving a choice you could have this or you can have that. If you choose the wrong decision your career will be short.And you will just be a has-been in the book. That's why is it really worth it to be famous we're just wanting you can become rich by winning lottery hitting it big on the stock market whatever the case may be rich is one thing famous.

All the time, bad people usually are the fastest ones to have kids, and for all kinds of self serving reasons, keep their partners, get money from their partners, sell the kids for money (like these stage mums do), etc.. A scary thought yes, but why do so many people have children so carelessly and thoughtlessly?! The answer is precisely that most are just doing it for self serving reasons. A lot of women, for instance, just do it to secure their relationships and make sure that they get more money in the advent of a divorce. Amber Heard for example just had a child to better her image and try to get away with a better court ruling, that silicone valley woman who was accused of fraud also just did the same. We will all be reading their children’s books in a couple of short decades from now.

When my young daughter watched this show (and others) I used to scream at the TV I could tell it was a creepy producer (I know the industry too well) I could see Jennette spiralling. I have known and seen too much for too long. Grateful the elephants in the room are being called out.

Just curious, what were the tells for you just from watching tv that they were working under a creepy producer?

​@@fionatheromantic The ketchup on the feet in the camera is a scene I remember!! Argh. As I stated I help people manage their creepy behaviors.

Ariana Grande is the one who accepted the abuse for the top fame she has now. As long as youre quiet youll get all the opportunities like what Usher has because of his silence on Diddy's abuse. Justin Bieber will speak out really soon. One thing I also noticed is that the mothers of these children are the ones who put the kids through this. Every Nick kid had a mom who wanted them on and ended up breaking up with their husbands who said to keep an eye on the kid because the mom wants the fortune from their kid's fame. These people are savages and literally pimped their kids to these monsters.

I can't even watch anything with child actors anymore without thinking they are being, at best, manipulated, and at worst being horribly abused in one way or another. The terrible demise of many child actors, or their cries for help with drug use or psychotic breaks, etc. is so heartbreaking. There is much evil in this world. But, there is also much good. And everything good is due to God. Turn to God and away from evil. Jesus is the way, the Truth and the Life. It's not an easy path, but a righteous one. I hope her story brings others to Truth.

Thank you for speaking out! My mother was very controlling of me and it was hard to understand. I too, felt my own mother had my best interests at heart. I've learned over the years that she had issues and I was just a child trying to please her mother. At 18years of age, I didn't know who I really was....my mother told me who I was and expected me to live up to her demands. As time went on, I was very confused and needed help. I was making terrible decisions in my life that affected everyone. This went on for years. I didn't realize I needed help until I hit rock bottom and was placed at Teen challenge with counselors and other women. This forever changed me and God has brought much healing in my life. Today, I am 56 years of age with a counselor and doctor that have been a blessing. I can look back now and realize it wasn't my fault. I have forgiven and God has turned things around. Through counseling, I learned to set boundaries so that I could have a healthy relationship with others. Boundaries are key to your self-worth.

[@peaceofpiety]

20 years of therapists tell me to go no-contact with my mom. I can relate with hearing the most disgusting and unloving thing from a parent that you are supposed to look up to and have on a pedastal. When I left and decided to get help, to go on the inner healing journey, my mother began doing this to my daughter, to the point my daughter went to court to give right to my mother and didn't tell me until after she did it. She told me my mother told her not to talk to me about it, but it was something they had been planning for a while. My daughter looks empty inside, brainwashed, ill, lost... I went to open house with her for school this year and she told her teachers her grandmother has been gaslighting her. They laughed, so did my mother. They asked why my daughter drastically changed her appearance; she used to dress up for school, do fun make up, and dye her hair different colors to express her art outwardly. Teachers were shocked to see he with short blonde hair and wearing pajamas to school. I pointed at my mother and said, "she made her do it." My mother said, "I wanted her to cut her hair and be a blonde for her senior year, she did it to make ME happy!" The teachers laughed, meanwhile I was standing realizing the teachers weren't even realizing what was being confessed right to their faces. This story has inspired me to get ahold of higher authorities to speak the truth. Thank you.
