1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,200 Speaker 1: My German host mom's son is a creep. I want out. 2 00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:06,600 Speaker 1: I never thought this would happen. I cannot sleep tonight 3 00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:09,160 Speaker 1: because of how helpless I'm feeling in this situation. I 4 00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:11,880 Speaker 1: am an O pair. I started at nineteen, went to 5 00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:14,920 Speaker 1: Australia and took care of two little girls and loved it. 6 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:17,119 Speaker 2: What's an O pair It's kind of like a nanny, Okay. 7 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:19,639 Speaker 1: After a year, I came back home and went to college, 8 00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:22,240 Speaker 1: but I decided that I wanted to travel again because 9 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:24,800 Speaker 1: I am interested in teaching English abroad. One day I 10 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:27,479 Speaker 1: met a really great family on an accredited website that 11 00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:29,720 Speaker 1: I went to last time for my O pair match 12 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: and met a German family. By the way, this comes 13 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,240 Speaker 1: from O pair troubles X on the Best of Vetitor 14 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:37,320 Speaker 1: Updates subridden. So they really liked me, and I really 15 00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 1: liked them and the area. And I've always wanted to 16 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,479 Speaker 1: go to Germany. So after about three months of talking 17 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:44,920 Speaker 1: and making sure there were no other family I wanted 18 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 1: to go with more, we went through with it. Now 19 00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 1: I am in Germany and I have been here for 20 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 1: two months. 21 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 2: Where in Germany? 22 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 1: That's what I want to know.

Thank you, Jan, You're very welcome. 38 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 1: But some weird things started happening. I began to notice 39 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,479 Speaker 1: that he started staring at me a lot whenever we 40 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 1: were alone. I believe this is the seventeen year old 41 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:36,319 Speaker 1: or even at family dinners. 42 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 2: Wait, how old is op opte is? 43 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 4: I believe nineteen Okay, maybe a little bit older, so 44 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:44,119 Speaker 4: within his age I started. 45 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,680 Speaker 5: I started at nineteen oh, so she's like twenty. 46 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 1: So she's probably in her early twenties. 47 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 2: Okay. 48 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 1: He walks up to me at times, and it sounds 49 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: like he's asking me questions in German, but I can't 50 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: understand him. The oldest boys can speak English. 51 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 5: Oh wait, no, this is I think it is still 52 00:01:58,400 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 5: the seventeen year. 53 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 1: Old is okay, it is seventeen year old. 54 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 3: I think you're just saying that both the fourteen year 55 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 3: old and the fourteen Yeah, seventeen year old can speak English. 56 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:06,880 Speaker 1: When I tell him I don't understand him, he just 57 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 1: walks away. I asked his brother once what he asked, 58 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 1: and he said it was something bad. Oh, and he's 59 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 1: told his brother to stop, but he won't listen. 60 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 4: So the seventeen year olds just walking up to her 61 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 4: saying some weird stuff in German. 62 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: And then walking away. And she's like what and he 63 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 1: was like he's like yeah, He's like oh. 64 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 2: The brother's like, you don't want to know. 65 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: You don't. Then, over these past two weeks, he's made 66 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: accidental contact with me. Sometimes he'll brush up against me, 67 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 1: even when there's enough room for us to not bump 68 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 1: into each other. One or two times when this happened, 69 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:38,799 Speaker 1: I felt something on my waist, like his hand. 70 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 2: Oh, but I. 71 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 1: Thought maybe it was an accident. Now that they're out 72 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,079 Speaker 1: of school, we're alone at the house during the day 73 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: while the parents work, and sometimes when I'm playing with 74 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,240 Speaker 1: the baby, he'll come and play with the baby too, 75 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 1: but he will be very close to me, like to 76 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,119 Speaker 1: the point where I have no personal space. I've had 77 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 1: to tell him a few times to give me space, 78 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,679 Speaker 1: and his younger brother has even said the same thing, 79 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 1: at least have the younger brother on your side. 80 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, at least that, and also glad you're like, yeah, 81 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 4: making an expense is bad. And also it must be 82 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:07,519 Speaker 4: pretty bad if you like have to be like yes, 83 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 4: like can you move back, Let's take. 84 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,799 Speaker 1: A stop back please. Still, for some reason, I thought 85 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 1: maybe he was just shy before and was starting to 86 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,359 Speaker 1: get comfortable with me. I didn't want to jump to 87 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 1: conclusions or label him as anything, so most of this 88 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 1: I've let go. I really like hanging out with the 89 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 1: baby and playing board games and stuff with the fourteen 90 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: year old. He's a funny, nice kid. But the bad 91 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,640 Speaker 1: thing that really happened was yesterday. Oh no, the family 92 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 1: went for a walk and I stayed behind because I 93 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 1: had bad cramps. The oldest boy also said he didn't 94 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 1: feel like walking, so he stayed behind. We were there alone, 95 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: and after they had left, I tried to go to 96 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: my room, but he blocked me. 97 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 2: That's scary. This is not like a child like. 98 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 1: This is this seventeen year old. 99 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like like could be like a big person. 100 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 1: I kept asking him to move, but he kept blocking me. 101 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: The look on his face like he thought it was 102 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 1: funny scared me. He would not speak English with me 103 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: when I kept asking him why he was doing this. 104 00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: And at this point I felt scared and went to 105 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: walk the other way. I was going to hide in 106 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: a bathroom until the others came back. But then he 107 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 1: grabbed my arm and forced my body. God, I don't 108 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: know if it was a forced hug or what, but 109 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 1: I tried to pull away, but he reacted by tightening 110 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:14,119 Speaker 1: his grip, so I just froze. 111 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 2: It's terrifying. 112 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 1: He let me go after a few seconds and just 113 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 1: left the room. That is so scary. Yeah, I'm so sorry. Op. 114 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, that is unaccepted. You're a girl in a foreign 115 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:29,359 Speaker 2: country and it's a grown man essentially grabbing. 116 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 1: You in when you're alone alone in that house. 117 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:32,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, scary. 118 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: When the family came back, I went into my room 119 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,039 Speaker 1: for the night because I felt like I would just 120 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:38,919 Speaker 1: start crying in front of them. I don't know what 121 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: I should do.

Cazap wn two says, if she doesn't believe you, 216 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 1: then just quit. Better than this little freak potentially doing 217 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 1: something f't up to you, and OP says, Yeah, that's 218 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 1: probably the most logical solution. But I've spent so much 219 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 1: time and money the plane ticket and saving up just 220 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:39,959 Speaker 1: to come to Germany, just to leave after two months. 221 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 1: It feels like all my work would just be wasted. 222 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: That's why I want to try at least see if 223 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 1: I can talk to the host mom, But I don't 224 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:48,440 Speaker 1: know what to say. I love the role and the 225 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 1: other two kids minus him and the last word. Sixty 226 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: three says, you do realize that you were sayed, don't you? 227 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 1: Even if the parents believe you, you still may not 228 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,839 Speaker 1: be safe there, Yeah, which I think is the case. 229 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 2: Like, no matter how I you like the family, I 230 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 2: just don't think it's worth it. 231 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 1: Add Yes, Like I'm gonna preface by saying, you know, 232 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 1: like obviously money is very important, and you know it's 233 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 1: hard to make money, but money is something that you 234 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 1: can make back your safety and your life, and you 235 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 1: know that is much more important. 236 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that if it escalates exactly what Kian's saying, like, 237 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 4: the trauma of that is not something you could take back. 238 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, Opie says, for some reason, my brain just can't 239 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 1: register it as SA, even though a part of me 240 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 1: knows it was definitely really wrong. I think I might 241 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,439 Speaker 1: be in some sort of shock. It's really late here 242 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 1: and I still can't sleep. It doesn't feel that severe 243 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: to me to label it that way. Every time I 244 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 1: think about it, I feel so ashamed. He's like half 245 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 1: my age and I couldn't do anything about it. I 246 00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 1: Fly twenty one hundred says some guy restrained you and 247 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 1: forced a hug after blocking your path. Does it help 248 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 1: to read it in third person? That is assault? Yes, 249 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: you're in shock, Opie says, Okay, I understand. Like I said, 250 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,199 Speaker 1: it's a lot to deal with. I'm away from my 251 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,200 Speaker 1: family in this country and now having to basically make 252 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: an escape plan slash worry about my safety. I'm having 253 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 1: some difficulty processing right now. I'm going to contact my 254 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 1: agency in the morning. I just feel humiliated. I'm going 255 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 1: to have to tell them what happened. I hope they 256 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:11,679 Speaker 1: don't ask too many questions and just see if it's 257 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:13,959 Speaker 1: possible to move on. I think also, I should call 258 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 1: my mom, but I even feel humiliated to tell her. 259 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: I just feel so much shame. It's a feeling in 260 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 1: this context I've never had to deal with before. Burnt 261 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: Toasted Butter says, not sure how this works. Is it 262 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,079 Speaker 1: possible to find a different family to host you if 263 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,680 Speaker 1: you can? Whenever you notice, try to get moments alone 264 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 1: with you. Put your phone on record and put it 265 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,199 Speaker 1: in your pocket. It may not record what he's doing, 266 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 1: but the fourteen year old says, he's saying bad things, 267 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 1: probably inappropriate af things. If the parents are responsible, they 268 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,839 Speaker 1: would do something. However, if they're my children, whenever kind 269 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:48,079 Speaker 1: your safety is really compromised here. James Phillips says, please 270 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: don't go back. Kids always know how to get into 271 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: the house they grew up in. I don't think you'll 272 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,320 Speaker 1: truly be able to be comfortable there, despite the host 273 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 1: family taking your seriously hope, he says, yeah, considering the 274 00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 1: oldest boys behavior, you're probably right. I wouldn't put it 275 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 1: past him at all. Maybe he even feels vengeful towards me. 276 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,319 Speaker 1: My heart is literally broken, though for the younger kids, 277 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: especially the fourteen year old, by his reaction, it seems 278 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: like maybe his brother ruins a lot of connections for him, 279 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,319 Speaker 1: but at least he has friends from school and his 280 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 1: baby brother. It makes me feel somewhat better knowing is 281 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 1: not completely alone and there is an update. But like, oh, pe, 282 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,200 Speaker 1: you have done nothing wrong. This is in no way 283 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 1: your fault, and shame is I mean yeah, Eleana Bean says, 284 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 1: shame is the biggest silence maker for victims of essay. 285 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 1: It is a very common feeling to feel like you've 286 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,440 Speaker 1: done something wrong, like you've like there was something else 287 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 1: that you, like a boundary you could have put in place. 288 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:39,599 Speaker 2: That is not true because. 289 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 4: You're put in a state of helplessness by someone that 290 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:45,959 Speaker 4: you know physically can overpower you, overpower you, and so 291 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 4: that response makes complete sense. And I'm sure there's you know, 292 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,839 Speaker 4: a lot of shock as well and not trying to like, yeah, 293 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 4: your body is not trying to like fully take it 294 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 4: on the reality of the situation. 295 00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 2: But again, like safety. 296 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:02,560 Speaker 1: Paramount, yes, Zach Taylor says, whether they believe OPI or not, 297 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:04,680 Speaker 1: what are the chances they kick out the kid? Not 298 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 1: very likely, that's the thing their son there. I mean, 299 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 1: if they tell him off or not, it doesn't probably 300 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: wouldn't change him being in the house. 301 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, and so the options again, you could tell the 302 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 4: agency you could just get out. There's and I know 303 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 4: she said like money, like she's a young woman, like 304 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,080 Speaker 4: money is an issue, and so you could do you know, 305 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:25,680 Speaker 4: there's work trades, there's. 306 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,079 Speaker 1: Working at hostels where you get bored and stuff. 307 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:32,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, there's board and food, working at hostels. There's so 308 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 4: many other options that you could go to immediately and 309 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:36,319 Speaker 4: not have to pay any money at all. 310 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 1: And it seems like Opie has enough money to get home. 311 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 1: It's just like, oh, I spent a lot to get here, 312 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 1: so it's yeah, hostels is a great way to continue 313 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:48,840 Speaker 1: traveling while also being able to pay for food and room, 314 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 1: door stuff.

Even 341 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 1: though it was, I received a lot of people reaching 342 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 1: out to me asking if I was okay and if 343 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:06,680 Speaker 1: I could provide an update, so I wanted to give 344 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,200 Speaker 1: some closure. In short, I am an au pair in 345 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 1: Germany and was being harassed by my host parents' son, 346 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,960 Speaker 1: seventeen male. He basically assaulted me. It is still hard 347 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 1: for me to come full terms with that word, but 348 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 1: I know at least that it was in fact what 349 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: it was. Yesterday was my day off, and after reading 350 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 1: through everyone's advice and everything, I contacted my agency that morning. 351 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 1: I made sure to first get out of the house 352 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 1: so no one would overhear me, and to get away 353 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 1: from the older boy. The younger boy, the fourteen year old, 354 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: asked me if he could go with me. I was 355 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 1: going to the library, and I didn't mind taking him, 356 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 1: even though technically he could go by himself. I see 357 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 1: older children walking around alone a lot in Germany, but 358 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 1: he specifically kept asking to go with me, And like 359 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: I said before, he's a really good kid to be around, 360 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 1: so I don't mind. I wonder if he wants to 361 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 1: tell her something. 362 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 2: Maybe that's what that kind of feels like. Maybe I was. 363 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 1: Planning to go to a closed off area and make 364 00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 1: my phone calls while he went around looking for books. 365 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 1: But while we were talking to the library, I could 366 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 1: tell he wanted. 367 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 2: To say, oh, okay. 368 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 1: After a while, I asked if there was anything wrong, 369 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 1: and after a bit of a pause, he asked me 370 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 1: nervously if I was okay and if anything happened. Yes, 371 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 1: he said he was wondering why I didn't see me 372 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 1: at all anymore. After they came back for home. I 373 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 1: didn't say anything at first because I didn't want to 374 00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 1: tell him inappropriate information. I told him I just had 375 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 1: bad cramps, which was true, and wanted to sleep. But 376 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,280 Speaker 1: he's a smart kid, and I think then he knew 377 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: because he asked if it was because of his older brother. 378 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 1: When I didn't say anything, I was so caught off 379 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 1: guard by his questions. He asked if I was leaving. 380 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 1: He honestly looked so sad. He said he was sorry 381 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 1: and that he hoped I don't have a bad impression 382 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 1: of Germany. Now that's so sad. I almost cried because 383 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 1: of how depressed he sounded. I told him not to 384 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 1: worry about it, and that I had nothing to do 385 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 1: with Germany or him or the baby, and that I'd 386 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,400 Speaker 1: be okay. So I finally contact my agency when we 387 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 1: arrived at the library. I was so nervous that I 388 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 1: was shaking when I made the call, but they were 389 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 1: amazing and took everything I was saying seriously. I just 390 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:03,640 Speaker 1: told him that the oldest child was making me feel 391 00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 1: unsafe and in vague terms what happened, without going into 392 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 1: too much detail. They understood, thankfully, what I meant and 393 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 1: told me that they would work on replacing me if 394 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 1: that's what I wanted. They also said they would reach 395 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 1: out to the family to let them know of what 396 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: was happening and of my concern with their son. 397 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 2: Oh good that is. You don't have to yeah, it. 398 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 1: Doesn't have to do it. You have kind of a 399 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 1: mediator person. I then called my mom, being a mother, 400 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 1: after I told her everything that had happened. She yelled 401 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 1: at me a little, not in an abusive way, but 402 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: for not telling her sooner, and told me very sternly 403 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 1: that I was not going back to that house tonight. 404 00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 1: Even being an adult, I don't argue with my mom 405 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 1: when she uses that type of domb. 406 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,360 Speaker 2: I'm glad the mom like put down the line. 407 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. I was like, do not like I will give you. Yeah, 408 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 1: it's very much the mom move like I will pay 409 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 1: yeah for you to stay in a hotel. Don't go 410 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 1: back there. Yeah. It Also I think sometimes having your parents, 411 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 1: you know, who is protective of you, telling them something 412 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 1: that you're kind of diminishing. You're like, oh, it wasn't 413 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: that bad and they're like, no, it was that bad 414 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: for sure. 415 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 2: Get out of there for sure. 416 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, because I've again been in those situations where I 417 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 1: tell my mom something and I was like, it's fine, 418 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 1: She's like. 419 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 2: No, yeah, sometimes we need you just have it reflected 420 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 2: back by someone. 421 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:11,639 Speaker 1: Yeah. 422 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,359 Speaker 4: Harriet Spaghetti says, I wonder if the older brother is 423 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:15,200 Speaker 4: abusing him too. 424 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:16,199 Speaker 1: I hope not. 425 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:18,119 Speaker 2: I really, she's hopefully not. 426 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:22,240 Speaker 1: She sounded so frantic and sent me money to stand 427 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:25,199 Speaker 1: hotel for a while. I didn't even read that, and 428 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:27,280 Speaker 1: I knew that's what she would do. Yeah, until they 429 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:29,399 Speaker 1: found me a new placement, even though she really just 430 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 1: wanted me to come home. I felt a lot better 431 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:34,160 Speaker 1: after talking to her. After a while, the younger boy 432 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 1: came back over and told me very plainly, I'm going 433 00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 1: to tell mom he would not listen to me when 434 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:40,399 Speaker 1: I told him not to or not to put himself 435 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:43,159 Speaker 1: in that situation. I can handle it. He seemed very angry. 436 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 1: What a lovely child, this fourteen year old. 437 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,479 Speaker 2: Really standing up for her by looking out for her. 438 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,199 Speaker 1: Tiberly Fine says it totally hasn't even registered that this 439 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 1: kid probably specifically does this to the au pairs because 440 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 1: they're isolated convenient, sure, but he knows he has them 441 00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,159 Speaker 1: cornered with no support. 442 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 2: In the country hopefully not. It's awful. 443 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,200 Speaker 1: He tried to reassure me that his parents would listen 444 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,720 Speaker 1: and that they know that the older brother causes trouble sometimes. 445 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 1: They had another girl a few years ago that left 446 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:13,440 Speaker 1: because of him, and everyone thought maybe since he'd grown 447 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:15,119 Speaker 1: up and changed, it would be different. 448 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 5: So there, like officially, Lucy called it, well. 449 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, like you don't. This is not like 450 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,439 Speaker 1: something that just kind of I mean, of course it 451 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 1: can happen where someone is feels that bold, but I 452 00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 1: think it is something that people work up to. 453 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 2: Sure. 454 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 1: I stayed at the library while he went home and 455 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 1: just waited. I did not know what was going to happen. 456 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 1: I already had a hotel booked by then and new 457 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 1: I would probably need to go back to get my stuff. 458 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 1: About an hour and a half later, I left the library. 459 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 1: Since the parents were at home today, I felt somewhat 460 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 1: safe going back to get my stuff. Before I got back, 461 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:47,880 Speaker 1: I received a call. It was from my host mom. 462 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 1: When I answered, she was frantic. She asked me if 463 00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 1: I was okay and where I was when I got 464 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,120 Speaker 1: to the house. The parents were in somewhat of an argument. 465 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:57,679 Speaker 1: I didn't understand all of it because they went between 466 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,560 Speaker 1: German and English, but I heard some words like not 467 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:04,280 Speaker 1: again and ruining. In short, the mother pulled me aside. 468 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:06,400 Speaker 1: She said that she wasn't aware that the oldest son 469 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 1: was still like this geeze. She begged me not to leave. 470 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 1: She told me she wanted her two youngest sons to 471 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:14,879 Speaker 1: have healthy attachments to their caregivers and that it was 472 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,360 Speaker 1: hard for them to do this with the oldest. Don't don't, 473 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:19,160 Speaker 1: don't stay? 474 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:22,200 Speaker 2: What is that logic? Like, I'm so sorry you don't 475 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 2: stay in an unsafe house. 476 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:26,399 Speaker 1: That's crazy. She was actually crying during all of this 477 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 1: and told me she doesn't know why he acts like that, 478 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:30,359 Speaker 1: but she did not raise him like that, and that 479 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 1: while she loved her son, she was not going to 480 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: tolerate that behavior anymore. She said that once he turns 481 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 1: eighteen next week, I had no idea his birthday was 482 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 1: next week, he will have to go live with his 483 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,639 Speaker 1: uncle and cousin in the Netherlands for the sake of 484 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,360 Speaker 1: everyone in the house. She told me they the parents 485 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:47,120 Speaker 1: disgusted a bit when the first incident happened, but since 486 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,400 Speaker 1: he seemed to act better, they dropped it at the time. 487 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:51,840 Speaker 1: When I asked where he was, she said that he 488 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,399 Speaker 1: left quickly when his brother came home, saying he was 489 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 1: going to a friend's house. He probably will not be back, 490 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: and she said that even if he does, she will 491 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 1: not let him in and will tell him to go 492 00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 1: to his aunts who lives not that far until he 493 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 1: can go to the Netherlands. She actually looked very sincere 494 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 1: and stern when she said this, and even though the 495 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 1: father looked like he was in shock, he agreed with 496 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,880 Speaker 1: what she said. I didn't know how to respond to them. 497 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 1: It was not the reaction I was expecting, but I 498 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:18,359 Speaker 1: wanted to be honest. I told her that I was 499 00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,199 Speaker 1: going to stay at a hotel for a while and 500 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,640 Speaker 1: that she will probably hear from the agency.

I 561 00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 1: felt almost sick with worry when I wrote my first 562 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:53,959 Speaker 1: post of not being believed. But even though the oldest 563 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,679 Speaker 1: boy probably won't be back and will eventually be forced 564 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 1: to leave, I still feel the effects of what happened lingering. 565 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:03,400 Speaker 1: I still feel vulnerable and overwhelmed when I even think 566 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,479 Speaker 1: about what happened, I feel so bad for the younger children. 567 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:08,720 Speaker 1: I'm not sure if I should go back or not. 568 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:10,680 Speaker 1: She told me to think about it. I will give 569 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:12,880 Speaker 1: it some time and see what my agency says first 570 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:15,359 Speaker 1: about other placements. I just wanted to thank everyone for 571 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:17,840 Speaker 1: helping me through something really difficult. But I am safe 572 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 1: now in this hotel, and I'm not going to rush 573 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:23,440 Speaker 1: back into any situation without thinking over my options and 574 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 1: asking for my mom's opinion. Thank you once again, And 575 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 1: there is I believe some relevant comments and an update. 576 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 1: But Kimberly Fine says, I don't know. I knew someone 577 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:35,440 Speaker 1: who became known as a predator high school started way earlier. 578 00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 1: They immediately sent her, yes or her to a facility, 579 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,520 Speaker 1: and moved across the country. I think that, I mean, 580 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 1: it seems like she went to a facility, so it 581 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:47,560 Speaker 1: was something there was like specific focus on that, trying 582 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 1: to fix that behavior rather than just send like sending 583 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 1: it to an uncle or something. 584 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, like, well there's this problem, let's you know, shove 585 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:54,400 Speaker 4: them away in the shadows. 586 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like that does prex the problem. 587 00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 2: Things pushing the shadows grow even larger and. 588 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:01,400 Speaker 1: Scarier, and it's like it's not and I'm not saying 589 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 1: this is like oh, like he needs like I want 590 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:06,160 Speaker 1: to help them. It's like for the protection of everyone 591 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 1: around these people. 592 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 2: And the women. 593 00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly women in the future, This like problem needs 594 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:17,640 Speaker 1: to be solved. It needs immediate and like specific attention. 595 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:21,960 Speaker 3: It's like sweeping crap under the rug. It's like, Okay, 596 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 3: you don't see it, but you can smell it, and 597 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 3: it's gonna smell worse, and it can smell worse and 598 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 3: worse and people are gonna walk over it and you're like, 599 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:29,159 Speaker 3: what does that smell? 600 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 1: Yeah? Ali, have you guys seen the show Mind Hunters? Okay, 601 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:36,320 Speaker 1: So it's basically about it's like a based off a 602 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:40,240 Speaker 1: true story the Behavioral Science science unit at the FBI, Okay, 603 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 1: and so it's basically going into all of the talking 604 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 1: to all these like serial you know on the libras 605 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 1: true like true people, true stories and stuff, and them 606 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:54,680 Speaker 1: finding out the behavioral stuff and where it came from. 607 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 1: And so it does develop in childhood and it is 608 00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:00,879 Speaker 1: like it can lead to just work worse behavior, So 609 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:04,240 Speaker 1: it's so important to get it before it, you know, 610 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 1: goes even worse. But there are some relevant comments. Kelpy 611 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 1: Maine says, please make sure the agency understands that this 612 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 1: has happened before and that the parents still somehow thought 613 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:14,760 Speaker 1: it was safe and fair to you to have another 614 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 1: O pair in the home depending on how your agency 615 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 1: placed you. If the agency have knowledge that another person 616 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:23,160 Speaker 1: had left and continued with this family as a placement, 617 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:25,840 Speaker 1: that is important information for you to know and maybe 618 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 1: a consideration in allowing them to place you elsewhere, among 619 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:32,120 Speaker 1: other things. That's my question. They said we would replace Op, 620 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 1: would that person know all of this information? 621 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:39,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, but at the point that they would now replace OP, 622 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:42,200 Speaker 4: the man the kid wouldn't be in the house anymore. 623 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:44,480 Speaker 1: Yes, but it's still I think it's still a relevant 624 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:47,399 Speaker 1: information to know that the happened with those parents. 625 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, sure, Yeah, if. 626 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 1: You don't already know, I'd ask this agency if they've 627 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,320 Speaker 1: ever placed all pairs with this family before, or no 628 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,119 Speaker 1: of other agencies who have do that prior to telling 629 00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,159 Speaker 1: them about what the family told you. I would not 630 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,880 Speaker 1: suggest going back. Even if the older son leaves, He's 631 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 1: potentially going to be upset and may know how to 632 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 1: enter or talk his way into the house even if 633 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:08,959 Speaker 1: sent elsewhere. There is now drama in the family as 634 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,399 Speaker 1: a result of his actions. The younger child has been 635 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:14,640 Speaker 1: exposed to stuff he shouldn't. It's just a bad situation 636 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,120 Speaker 1: for us for you, Remember, the parents knew he did 637 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:19,640 Speaker 1: this before and still brought you into the home. They 638 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:21,720 Speaker 1: don't have your best interests at heart here and are 639 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 1: clearly more than a bit in denial. Yeah, they the 640 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 1: interests they are holding are further kids. At the end 641 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 1: of the day. I don't know much about being in 642 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:31,280 Speaker 1: a pair, but there is an no pair specific separate it. 643 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 1: It may be worth posting there for any knowledge about 644 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:36,640 Speaker 1: how to talk to the agency in future calls. Remember 645 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:40,200 Speaker 1: they're trying to do damage control themselves right now. Opie says, 646 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:43,160 Speaker 1: thank you, I honestly didn't think of that. It does 647 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:45,879 Speaker 1: make me feel a bit strange that they didn't tell me, 648 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 1: and like you said, still invited another girl there after 649 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,399 Speaker 1: what had happened. I think that the mother is maybe 650 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:54,679 Speaker 1: really hurt at her son's behavior. She was crying really hard. 651 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 1: I actually felt bad, but still she brought me there. 652 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:00,920 Speaker 1: The only one who seemed concerned about me before any 653 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,199 Speaker 1: of this happened was the younger brother. A lot of 654 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 1: his behavior makes sense now, why he would follow the 655 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:07,800 Speaker 1: baby and I everywhere, and why he didn't really speak 656 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:12,600 Speaker 1: to his brother of yes, yeah, what like, I feel 657 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,960 Speaker 1: so bad for this fourteen year old who is forced 658 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 1: to kind of take on this adult sure protector. 659 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 4: Yeah at fourteen, should not have you young and yeah, 660 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:25,640 Speaker 4: he's needing to protect these women that are taking care 661 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:26,400 Speaker 4: of him, like. 662 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:28,439 Speaker 2: Taking care of him, care of him, Yeah, to be 663 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 2: taken care of them. 664 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:32,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, I will definitely ask the agency that, though I 665 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:34,919 Speaker 1: hope it isn't true, because otherwise they've been exceptional in 666 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:38,520 Speaker 1: all other aspects. And Miss Twisted says, you've been through 667 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:40,920 Speaker 1: something traumatic and the only person you need to worry 668 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:44,159 Speaker 1: about right now is yourself. Listen to your mom. Maybe 669 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 1: these people do everything right and the boy never comes 670 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 1: anywhere near you again, You're still not going to be 671 00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 1: comfortable in the house, you will not sleep properly. It's 672 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 1: sad for the younger kids, but they are their parents' responsibility. 673 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 1: Focus on yourself right now, Opie says, yes, Unfortunately the 674 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 1: trust with the host parents is broke. I did receive 675 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:03,879 Speaker 1: some good news today through the agency. They said there 676 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:06,359 Speaker 1: are three interested families that would like to interview with 677 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 1: me based on my profile. They're looking to start asap 678 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 1: and I have two of them lined up later today, 679 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 1: the other tomorrow. Hopefully things go well and one of 680 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:15,879 Speaker 1: them is a good fit. Thank you for your comment. 681 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,440 Speaker 1: I still can't help but think about the other two though, 682 00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 1: but the night in hotel really helped clear my head 683 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 1: and everything. I'm going to try to make a report 684 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:25,640 Speaker 1: and get in touch with some resources I was given 685 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:27,359 Speaker 1: and there is another update. 686 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:28,280 Speaker 2: Wow, okay, but. 687 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:30,080 Speaker 1: I think all of the right steps are being tad 688 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:30,639 Speaker 1: for sure now. 689 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:31,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and. 690 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,160 Speaker 1: Be gentle with yourself. Take it's going to take time 691 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:35,120 Speaker 1: and that's okay. 692 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's lots of process. 693 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. Garden B says second brother's eighteen. He'll be an 694 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 1: adult criminal and is awful and MH is awful for 695 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,720 Speaker 1: eighteen year old MH. I don't know, but there is 696 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:47,880 Speaker 1: an update. Any other thoughts before getting into it. 697 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 2: I just want to hear an update. 698 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 1: To give an update. I spoke with the agencies sometime 699 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 1: earlier today and ask them if there had been any 700 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 1: other repairs with his family. They said this is their 701 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,520 Speaker 1: first time placing someone with the family, which is good 702 00:28:59,520 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 1: to know. 703 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:01,920 Speaker 2: Yes, there was that, so they didn't know. 704 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 1: They didn't know about it, hopefully and if another OH 705 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 1: Pair was with the family before, it was probably through 706 00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 1: another agency, which I wonder if maybe the other agency 707 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:13,160 Speaker 1: didn't want to place anyone with them again because of that. 708 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 2: Yeah. 709 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 1: Possibly, But they had no knowledge of this, and when 710 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:19,160 Speaker 1: they interviewed the family was told this was a new 711 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:20,760 Speaker 1: experience for them. 712 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 2: So they so they lied. Yeah, they lied. 713 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,400 Speaker 1: I am thinking maybe the other girl was through another agency. 714 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 1: There are a few of them. I'm not sure that 715 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 1: all O pair agencies can see the other's network, but 716 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 1: they said they will look further into it. They told 717 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,120 Speaker 1: me that for now they will not be placing any 718 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 1: new girls with this family, so that gave me some 719 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 1: peace of mind. Great, Yeah, that was great to hear, 720 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:42,000 Speaker 1: and then comments Kelpy Maine says, I hope that helps 721 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 1: make it clear to you why returning to this family 722 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 1: would be an issue. It sure sounds like they lied 723 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 1: to the agency and covered up what their son previously did. Absolutely. 724 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:52,440 Speaker 1: I know you feel sorry for the mom, but this 725 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 1: is absolutely something that enabled to some extent. Think about it. 726 00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 1: They knew their son was capable of doing this. They 727 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 1: intentionally lied to the ag you see, and brought another 728 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:03,480 Speaker 1: young woman into the house after it happened. Once, was 729 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 1: the son clearly in therapy? Were they monitoring his behavior 730 00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 1: around you? Why was he even irregularly around you unsupervised? Yeah, 731 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 1: they let him stay home. 732 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 2: It's all very important questions. 733 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:16,280 Speaker 1: They failed you, and they even failed him to some extent, 734 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:20,040 Speaker 1: since they basically created a situation by bringing you into 735 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 1: the home in which he was highly likely to do 736 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:25,880 Speaker 1: something again. They are also severely failing their younger children. 737 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 1: Think about the younger son's position for a minute. He 738 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 1: knows his brother as a predator. He was following you 739 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 1: everywhere and clearly thought it was his job to protect you. 740 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 1: That's far too much to put on a child that age. Yeah, 741 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 1: they set him up to be traumatized and experience the 742 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 1: sudden loss of a caregiver. When this happened again. He 743 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 1: was very obviously upset about whatever happened last time, which 744 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:47,960 Speaker 1: makes it clear they did not get him help processing 745 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 1: or coping with whatever happened last time. Instead, they set 746 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:52,920 Speaker 1: him up to feel like he had to be the 747 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 1: adult in the situation, which he never should have been 748 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,440 Speaker 1: and tell his parents slash protect you. He was put 749 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:01,240 Speaker 1: in a highly inappropriate situation by them too, And it's 750 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 1: very clear that they aren't thinking about his well being either, 751 00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 1: if they're asking you to return you returning as an 752 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 1: O pair creates an intense relationship between him and his 753 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 1: oh pair and which he knows things about you he 754 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:14,000 Speaker 1: shouldn't and feels obligated to care for you in a 755 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:16,480 Speaker 1: way he shouldn't. Again, that creates this kind of weird 756 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 1: not it Like it takes the role of you as 757 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:22,600 Speaker 1: a caretaker and him as someone to be cared for 758 00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 1: kind of. 759 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 2: And like switches it. Yeah, which just so. 760 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 1: Unfair really, yeah, out of balance? 761 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know the parents have a role in 762 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 2: putting him in that role. 763 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, and yeah, it just makes it harder to try 764 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:34,440 Speaker 1: and like care for him and be that pretector. 765 00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:38,400 Speaker 4: And also it's just wild to know that they I 766 00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 4: mean what the comment was saying, Yeah, like they knew 767 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 4: this happened, and they like switched agencies, lied to the 768 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:49,000 Speaker 4: new agency, and with no concern over the oh pairs 769 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 4: that they're bringing to the house into an unsafe house 770 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,280 Speaker 4: and then also having to put the younger brother into 771 00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 4: a role that is so inappropriate. 772 00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:58,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, even when you know he was bringing up 773 00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 1: that she probably was gonna leave, the mother was crying, 774 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:02,920 Speaker 1: is he like no, please stay, like we need you, 775 00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:04,800 Speaker 1: that the kids need you, and trying to guilter and 776 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 1: it's it kind of is evident that they just want 777 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 1: a person to care for their kids. Like sure, you know, 778 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,000 Speaker 1: we don't know their work, maybe they're busy, and like 779 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 1: people have nanny's and no pairs for tons of different reasons, 780 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 1: which is I'm not saying like that's a bad thing 781 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 1: in and of itself at all, but like it does 782 00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:20,440 Speaker 1: seem like they just want people to care for their 783 00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 1: kids and they don't really care about what happens to 784 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:25,600 Speaker 1: those people. Mm hmm, which is sad. 785 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, especially if it's you know, something like s the 786 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 2: in the question. 787 00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:32,040 Speaker 1: He should be getting some help to cope with this 788 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:34,960 Speaker 1: brother's actions and to be able to have normal relationships 789 00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 1: with other adults where he doesn't feel responsible for protecting them. 790 00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:40,760 Speaker 1: If you went back there, that's a bad dynamic for 791 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 1: him developmentally, since he clearly feels like he needs to 792 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:45,800 Speaker 1: watch out for you at a level he should not 793 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 1: have to. Plus, their solution sending their older son away 794 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:51,560 Speaker 1: is not ideal either. He just what gets to go 795 00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 1: somewhere else where others likely don't know he does this 796 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 1: and probably offend again and increase behavior. He's going to 797 00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:01,000 Speaker 1: escalate over time because they aren't treating him the burgeonings 798 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:04,240 Speaker 1: offender he is. They are basically telling you that their 799 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 1: hope is to wash their hands of him when he's eighteen, 800 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:08,880 Speaker 1: knowing that he's going to keep doing stuff like this 801 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 1: and likely escalate to worse. They want him out of 802 00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 1: the house and someone else's problem. Yet he's still their 803 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 1: minor child. Oh and they're fighting about it all in 804 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 1: a language you can't understand, So you have no idea 805 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 1: if the dad feels similarly or not, what his relationship 806 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:26,760 Speaker 1: with his son is like, et cetera. Something is very 807 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 1: unhealthy in that home, and I strongly suspect you only 808 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 1: saw the surface of it. They are conflicted about when 809 00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:35,080 Speaker 1: to sweep things under the rug and when to address it. 810 00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 1: And the parents are not parenting, but are putting all 811 00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:41,360 Speaker 1: their children in situations that are unsafe or too emotionally 812 00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 1: complex for them to handle in an age appropriate way. 813 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 1: The younger brother knew his older brother was likely to reoffend, 814 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 1: so the parents nihle of that until it was A 815 00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 1: parent says a lot about how they will continue to 816 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 1: behave in the future. Are the relatives he's going to 817 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:56,440 Speaker 1: even going to even going to be worn or do 818 00:33:56,480 --> 00:34:00,480 Speaker 1: they have friends, babysitters or neighbors who will unsuspectedly be 819 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:03,360 Speaker 1: thrown in his path and have no idea he's done 820 00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:05,960 Speaker 1: it multiple times before. You can have empathy for them 821 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,759 Speaker 1: and the position they're in. His parents. It's an incredibly 822 00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 1: hard and somewhat sad situation. You could feel sorry for 823 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:15,120 Speaker 1: and miss their younger kids, but going back there would 824 00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 1: be a mistake. They intentionally brought you into the house 825 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,480 Speaker 1: knowing this might happen, and all they did to prevent 826 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:22,759 Speaker 1: it was hope. Yeah. I mean they said, oh, we 827 00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 1: hoped that he had changed, we thought it had gone away. 828 00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:26,359 Speaker 2: Yeah. 829 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:30,120 Speaker 4: And there was no effort, yeah, put no constraints or 830 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:36,399 Speaker 4: any serious efforts tense. Yes, an, that's something that seriously happened. 831 00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:39,240 Speaker 1: Again, their minor child was more aware of the problem 832 00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:42,160 Speaker 1: than they were. At best, they were negligent, and at worst, 833 00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 1: they deliberately misled or lied to the agency. It would 834 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 1: be one thing if this is the first time it happened, 835 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:49,560 Speaker 1: but it so clearly isn't. The mother came to you 836 00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:51,920 Speaker 1: crying and saying she doesn't know why her son is 837 00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 1: like this. Well, presumably she's had several years since the 838 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,880 Speaker 1: last incident to try to find that out by things 839 00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 1: like seeking out expert help, talking to him, et cetera. 840 00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:02,880 Speaker 1: It sure doesn't sound like she did those things. She 841 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:05,480 Speaker 1: says she's not going to tolerate his behavior anymore. The 842 00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:09,040 Speaker 1: implication there is that she has tolerated it in the past. 843 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:11,799 Speaker 1: The younger son basically told you that they hoped he'd 844 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 1: just grow out of it. If you do trust the agency, 845 00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:16,399 Speaker 1: I'd let them know all of that. In businesses like this, 846 00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 1: people talk occasionally and know people at other agencies, and 847 00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:22,439 Speaker 1: there are ways of getting out the word subtly such 848 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 1: that they don't just keep him in the house since 849 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:27,239 Speaker 1: you're not coming back and get a new unsuspecting a 850 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:29,960 Speaker 1: pair from yet another agency. It's not your job right 851 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,239 Speaker 1: now to worry about anyone else. You need to take 852 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:35,080 Speaker 1: care of yourself first and foremost. And the reality is 853 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:37,239 Speaker 1: that their son is likely to keep doing this, and 854 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:40,000 Speaker 1: the parents are likely to keep acting upset and confused 855 00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:43,640 Speaker 1: when it happens without recognizing their role in any of it. 856 00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:45,400 Speaker 1: Even if all they did was hope that he was 857 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 1: better and bring another person into the home, that is 858 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:50,680 Speaker 1: still enabling the fact that their youngest son has attachment 859 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:54,280 Speaker 1: issues with caregivers is precise precisely because they keep bringing 860 00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 1: caregivers into the home when they aren't working to protect 861 00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,960 Speaker 1: those caregivers from the known predator living in the home. 862 00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:02,680 Speaker 1: Ami Boots says, also, the parents could have asked for 863 00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:05,120 Speaker 1: a male ow pair, which would presumably have prevented this 864 00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:05,720 Speaker 1: from happening. 865 00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:07,680 Speaker 2: Again, Sure, that's a great point, Jack. 866 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 1: Jack Jack says, if the agency was planning to put 867 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 1: another pair in the home after you just told them 868 00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:14,879 Speaker 1: what happened, I would reconsider working for them too. And 869 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:16,960 Speaker 1: that is the end of that story. 870 00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:19,799 Speaker 4: Gee, but yeah, it was kind of one of those 871 00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 4: commenters was spot on with like a lot of that. 872 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:26,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely no, these parents definitely are culpable in many 873 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:29,920 Speaker 1: ways for the behavior and for not preventing it. 874 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:33,520 Speaker 4: But I'm glad op got out and I'm glad the 875 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:37,400 Speaker 4: agencies of wear and I Yeah, I really hope a 876 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:41,560 Speaker 4: lot of things changed and taken action to prevent this 877 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:44,439 Speaker 4: and also to get support for the younger brother as well. 878 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:47,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, but Mirkauwi says, I so feel for Opie wanting 879 00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:49,560 Speaker 1: to protect the kids.
