It was nice to read the story through her words/perspective. Made me want to go hug my kids.

I knew nothing about this family going in, but I'm drawn to cultish stories, so here we are.

My main takeaway - why the hell didn't the dad man up and protect his kids?!?

This story is frustrating and sad.

I found Shari Franke‘s account of her life and experiences with Ruby Franke —her mother, family vlogger, influencer, and convicted child abuser — to be compelling. I will occasionally watch a video with a cute baby in it; since reading Franke‘s book, I try not to do that anymore. Ruby blamed much of what she did on a woman she worked closely with, Jodi Hildebrandt, but it‘s clear that she was always abusive — Jodi just helped make it worse.

“I will break the cycle…I will trust the children. The child within me and the children I will one day nurture. I will trust in their resilience, their wisdom, their limitless imagination, and their innate capacity for love. I will guide them, but I will also learn from them and will allow their innocence and wonder heal the wounded parts of my soul. Together we will create a new story.”
I have no words. I am so proud of Shari.

Suet624 I‘m listening to this right now! 5mo
FashionableObserver @Suet624 You‘ll have to let me know what you think. I seriously want to punch both parents. That poor girl…those poor kids. It‘s a miracle Shari is here to tell this story. Talk about strength! 5mo
