      Look you say better off with Mom who beat him in the face? Made him terrified he didn't want to go back there @ brought him to tears. That his abuse was going on for 3yrs. at least if not more. And those other kids to afraid 😨 to speak up? And her words to the cop "You said I could use FORCE to get him out of the truck." And admitted to slapping him in the face but cleaned it up with "I will spank you." but never it wasn't the face...And Dad admitted he didn't like him doing snuff.. And Dad NEVER beated on his son..Judge was wrong. The boy was right for what he did. To bad the judge did the shitty thing. And to bad he didn't see how better off @ happier he was with Dad. Mom's a bitch of evilness. And her own fault that the boy hates on her for beating him down as she did. His RIGHT TO DEFEND HIMSELF was taking from him just because of his age. HIS RIGHT HIS RIGHT NO ONE GAVE A DAMN ABOUT THEM AND HOW HE FELT EXCEPT DAD.. NO CHILD SHOULD BE FORCED BACK WHERE IT'S NOT SAFE.. And Dads THE ONLY one who ever gave a damn about his kids. And still.. If not for Dad that boy stayed alive. Powered punk played down the boy's TRUTH from being heard by adults who ONLY cared to be RIGHT. The no good judge, their crooked lawyer, ect. @ all those on her side. It And the system takes away & breaks up INNOCENT families on lies in EVERY state by hearsay & with no PROOF yet you called Parker a liar & put him back by force into an unsafe @ abusive UNHEALTHY living environment & called it good. And the laws suck protecting the abusers @ not the minor (s) who speak the truth. As for the INNOCENT families they destroyed & ruined from listening to lies is for life but you called Parker a liar. Even the step-dad was bad, mean & cruel to him. Treated him more like property than a person.

    The saddest part to me is that he said he had been living with dad for 4 months… that means it took over 2 years for him to get what he wants and to go through ‘the system.’ The breaks me. Kids voices need to be heard and respected sooner than that.

It's really hard for me because, as a Christian, I know I'm supposed to honor my parents, but frankly, I don't know how with her. I feel sorry for my dad who lived with her even while suffering from PTSD that was never addressed. I can understand why he did some of the things he did--but with my mom, I can't even.

    Don’t know if this was intentional on your part but the symbolism of Parker being in the passenger seat in the video 6 years ago and all that was going on, and him being in the drivers seat in this one is amazing. Going from not having control of his life, to being in control of it. 👍

    I watched my sister go through this except she had nobody to protect her and when she was packing her things my father (who was the abuser in my case) lined the rest of the siblings up and told them what a bad example she was, how only traitors leave their family, etc. I don’t remember everything he said but I do remember her on her knees with tears streaming down her face as he berated her for wanting to live with our mother. I wished I could hug her but I wasn’t allowed to. I mean I could have but I would have been “supporting a bad influence.” And that would have meant I risked getting physically harmed. This happened well over 14 or 15 years ago and the biggest mistake I made was not hugging her. I regret that. And my dad truly ruined her. He wound up turning her into the same monster he is. I sincerely find my father to be a sickening man who thinks he never did anything wrong. And in some twisted way I still love him. And that makes my physically want to vomit.
    Edit: thank you all for the support and love, I have thought a whole lot about posting my own story of abuse on social media since I was very young (before YT or Facebook. I want to write a book about it) and I feared that people might judge me but with all the support I feel less anxious about getting my story out. I think cases like these are important to look at as they deal with hidden abuse. Thank you all and please take care of yourselves!

    Wow. I have watched all the videos and im happy to see the out come. In my opinion i would have gave you to your dad if you was my son. Me and my husband broke up and when my son turned 14 he wanted to go live with his dad and i understood. Only a man can raise a boy into a man. I never had to put my kids dad on child support. I didn't want nothing from him only thing i ask is to always be in his kids life. Especially his son. My son 26 now and i made the right decision.

      I agree with everything except "Only a man can raise a boy into a man" I can with absolute assurity say that my wonderful Amazing grandmother had to raise my Aunt and my father completely by herself when my Grandad died from a heart attack. And did a damn good job, both of the now adults are the most important people in my life, and are genuinely just such good people always willing to help with anything. Gender doesn't matter when it comes to raising children, character and integrity do.

      I too also agree accept for your comment regarding raising a son. In fact I wrote my college thesis exactly on this topic. Any parent regardless of their gender can raise a child even if they are the opposite gender. Bein a boy doesn't constitute needing a man to teach you how to be a good person/ be raised into a man. These social constructs you use are just that, constructs... just remember it wasn't men raising boys back in the old days... so it all boils down the the type of person who is raising the child. This father is more than adequate to raise his son.

      It’s so true. When you’re at a very young age trying to navigate divorced parents feelings and inclinations, you’re forced to think as an adult on how to mediate and navigate their feelings. You have to learn how to speak certain ways to minimize the effects on you. And one learns early how to observe and strategize the way you speak and carry yourself with whoever you’re around. Just to try to keep peace within yourself. It’s hard, but damn it makes you a good person-reader as an adult. Cuz you had to be one when you were a kid.

I wished I would have ran across your 1st video years and years ago when I was being abused myself because here I am 40 years old and I'm a mess….. Diagnosed with C-PTSD because of chronic exposure to a heartless, soulless mother! The sad part was I didn't know it was abuse because I didn't know any better and you at 14 years old knew that things weren't right and you fought for your rights and I'm so proud of you!! Like I said you are a true inspiration and Caleb, wow that's all I can say is wow I wish my father would have stuck up for me the way that you stuck up for your son! Because you let him know that no matter what he had at least one person in this world who loved him more than anything and you gave him the strength to fight! And I know you've caught a lot of grief for making these videos and putting them out there for people to see, don't pay attention to them, because the people who are making those comments have no clue what it's like to live with a malignant narcissist or the amount of damage that can be done!

      @Bruce lee well let's just say I was the scapegoat daughter of a malignant narcissistic mother. I knew from the time I was old enough to know what it meant, that I was a mistake and she she did not want any more children after my brother. She made it her life's mission to make my life a living hell, basically I was punished for being born! The world revolved around her and I was everything that was wrong with the world! I took the blame for everything whether it was my fault or not! She turned my father against me because of her jealousy and turned my brother and I against each other because that's what they do....divide and conquer. I literally walked through every step of my life alone, never having anyone that had my back no matter what. The worst part of it all is the abuse is subtle only occurring behind closed doors so #1 you don't realize it's abuse because it's just your normal and #2 if you were to tell anyone they would never believe you because she would look like the loving mother in front of people. And the emotional abuse she bestowed upon me was done in a manner to make me believe I deserved it. I was never encouraged or told I could be anything I wanted. I was the valedictorian of my high school class and was never encouraged to go to college....because she was jealous! To this day, I would give just about anything to hear "I'm proud of I was treated like I was nothing, my thoughts and feelings never mattered and I never felt welcome at home so I started hanging out with the other cast away teens and started doing drugs at 13 years old. Its been a very long hard road of sabatoging myself because I believed I didnt deserve anything good and why try to do better because I will fail, but I'm finally sober and in therapy I was diagnosed with C-PTSD about 4 years ago and thats around the time that I finally figured out that it was abuse and that I wasn't who she said I was and that I had been carrying a lifetime of guilt and shame that wasnt mine to carry, it was hers! I've made progress but, I still struggle...I'm 40 years old and still haven't found my voice....I never ask anyone for anything and still feel like I don't deserve nice things...it literally makes me sick to my stomach to buy something nice or new for myself because I still feel I don't deserve it. It's
      just a horrible existence on this earth!

      @@melaniewilhite4663 I've gone through all of this and having these feelings throughout life but the only difference is my mother left us and it was my dad always treating me like shit and turning everybody against me.
