The fact that at 2:12 said she has her own tissue, you can tell how much she has gone through and how strong she is in her independence. She is strong and wise, prayers go up for her and her family.
Wow , what a bright and seemingly nice kid. She is living proof that you can grow up to be a good person no matter what you are surrounded by. I have seen this before and I'm always amazed by it . I wish you luck kiddo.
I identify with this girl, although my mom had mental health issues more than drug addiction. Alcohol played a dangerous role in her episodes for a long time. This girl will grow up to be amazing, observant, and caring beyond the capacity of others who have not encountered early childhood trauma. Wishing her all the best!
I myself have severe mental health issues, I'm a recovering addict AND the mom of a 16 year old son.... it's encouraging to know that my son isn't necessarily doomed bc he got stuck with a mom like me it's only because of him that I even bothered to get clean (twice) bc it's a tough and scary world out here, I know that better than most, and my son is going to need all of the positive, healthy and sober help he can get in this world.... no one is ever going to look out for your children the way their parent does and so if it couldn't be me who would be left to do it????? I just focus on healing each and every day now, hopefully the hurt is over.....
My was was a past heroine, cocaine, and meth addict all at the same time. She’s now an abusive alcoholic. I can relate to this girl so much and it breaks my heart...
Humanity is deceived deceiving. The only common denominator between all addicts of any social background and distinction is that they are notorious liars. Addiction affects predominantly young healthy criminals. I have been trying to have the discovery of the nature of addiction known for years to end the war on drugs. Addiction satisfy the need to be a victim as is evidenced by addicts banning themselves the drugs that would take contaminated, expensive, unavailable, criminally punishable. I would like to help you as a recovering addict and psychologist. Addiction is the psychology of a liar, drugs don’t cause addiction and only liars get hooked and only honesty gets freedom. The tragedy of addiction is children who revenge a childhood hurt, or trauma, against their parents learning from example. Addicts don’t forgive, are needy of attention that steal from others, and have secrets that tell in AA meetings to reveal who they truly are to take off the mask and heal, ending the identity deception. Liars bring up liars, addiction runs in families. Parents hurt their children and children retaliate becoming victims of themselves to conceal the hatred and hurt others. I am alone socially ostracised by liars paying the price for being honest. I can prove my claim that the obvious truth is addiction is the psychology of a liar dropping mortality rates when my theory is known. It is harder to convince a fool that to know the truth is better than to be deceived than to deceive him.
very sweet reporter giving her a hug just giving her that recognition that she sees her pain and she is valid for what she feels and its ok and it will get better that she IS on the right track
Humans are remarkably resilient. This girl is a testament to that. I hope she seeks out supportive people who will help her stay on the straight-and-narrow.
My mom is a drug attics I’m only 10 and I have seen these things for my whole life she has never been mean before but I always had to listen to my parents fighting so right now she is trying to get better and this made me burst in tears

How much parents love their children and children love their parents? Have you watched the film “Lorenzo’s oil” starring Nick Nolte and Susan Sarandon as the parents of a child sick with a rare incurable brain disease who research and work incessantly to find a cure to save their son’s life? That never happened with addiction, the so called “family disease”. Not only parents and children of addicts, likewise psychologists, psychiatrists and rest of humanity, didn’t research the affliction, when just reading the big book of Alcoholics Anonymous (which the mainstream of addiction recovery programs are based on) and being honest to want to understand is enough to understand that addiction is the psychology of a liar, but silence the truth that would save their so called “loved ones”. Are you queuing in the crowded comforting lies or alone in the unpleasant truths? Do you believe addiction is an incurable brain disease that affects young healthy criminals that has never been found or detected by any biological or other means? The only common denominator between all addicts from any social background or distinction is that they are notorious liars. Humanity are dying deceived deceiving living a lie because parents don’t teach their children to be honest because are not honest themselves.

In life like in psychology events and behaviours happen for a reason.

I am a recovering addict, a fool who knows that is a fool, a wise man. I don’t know much but i know what i know. The truth is stagnated among liars and when the unpublishable truth is published mortality rates would collapse provoking humanity’s addiction recovery, a burst of psychology, guilt, shame that was bottled up, desensitised, ignored in active addiction.

hey! my parents are drug addicts too. i’m 16, my little sister is 11. right around your age. your comment broke my heart, know that it gets better and that you will heal. you are so loved
It's saddening seeing children having to be so strong and act like adults. No child to have to be an adult so young, and it's disheartening. But I'm so proud of these little people, being able to be so strong like this.
She is an awesome little girl to share her story.... I still struggle with the questions why i wasnt good enough or what was wrong with me for my mom to not stop taking drugs and im 41 now smh
As a teenager who has addict parents. It doesn’t just effect the parents, it affects the kids as well. I was fiending for myself. however, now in a better situation.
Precious little girl; Im so sorry sweetie. I’m glad you have your grandparents. We adopted our grand daughter. She has lived with us since birth. We feel so honored to raise her and we love her so much.
Very sad situation Tori was in. Tori is absolutely remarkable. She had an awful start but she is obviously a survivor. I am a mother and i couldn't imagine not looking after my children. Very upetting.
I'm raising my neice right now because her mother died from junk. The woman overdosed once and her family came to her aid dusted her off and propped her up when they should have let her hit rock bottom and learn a lesson but they didn't and less than a month later she was at some drug friends house and she overdosed and that was it. Twords the end she was a tyrannical person to everything and everyone around her. Pure evil.
It’s so sad that how much I can relate to this girl😔 glad my grandparents toke care of me or I would’ve followed in my moms footsteps, she stopped doing drugs up until I turned 13 though so my life is going good I guess
I wish I could hug this girl because I know what it’s like living with a drug addicted mother. My mom still uses meth to this day and all I can do is accept this is how she wants to live her life and just love her… I know it might sound wrong but I got only one mother.
What an inspirational and brave young lady. I thank God addiction did not affect my parents and that they were high functioning despite suffering mental and physical illnesses. I hope that Tori is doing well and enjoying life as she should. God bless her, her wonderful grandparents and the spirit of her late uncle. 🙏🏼
What about terminally ill cancer patients and people that needed emergency surgery? Should those people be denied oxycontin or morphine? That being g said I'm glad this young woman is okay.

God bless this woman’s grandparents. I can relate to this young woman’s story. When you notice a child is too mature for his or her age, this can be a major sign of drug abuse in the home. Glad she is awake and is calling out her Moms addiction. The truth truly sets a person free. Whether knowing it, or telling it.
I had the same childhood as Tori 😢 During the 2000s opioid epidemic, the public judged & ostracized addicts. I grew up trying to cover up my mothers severe pill addiction, excuse her bizarre behavior, & protect her from this harsh world. Glad times have changed where there’s less stigma attached & more empathy. Ultimately, addicts have suffered enough in life from underlying trauma, pain, and/or mental health problems. Everyone deserves to be treated equally ❤💪🙏
You should listen to this music “SMBA - Heroine”. He wrote this song about his mom’s addiction. A lot of people relate to this song and got healed ❤️🩹
Tory may God touch your life May he hold his hand on you and May He give you the strength to continue your journey. The way you are handling your tough situation is inspiring!
Incredible young lady! I’m sure she is 18 years old by now and I hope she continues to tell her story……..because it does help other kids to know it’s “OK” to tell someone when things are bad at home. Telling her story will help her heal from her trauma. ❤️❤️❤️
Don't know how she is right now, but I wish her well - she may not have had a great start which was completely out of her control but i hope she goes places as she obviously has a strong soul
Wow, It takes a lot of courage and bravery to come forward to tell your story, of what you had seen. Drug addiction not only hurts the user, but their friends and family as well. I’m glad that Tori was able to get her story out to spread awareness, this can help others say that this won’t last forever and that we can overcome this with the proper treatment/care. Praise the Lord that her mom is doing better now.

Hi my mom also use drugs I'm 8 years old and I feel just like you are. What else can I do to feel better. I hope you have a better life over the years.
I lived a life like this girl, i am glad they are sharing this. It feels deeply isolating i don't know other people that experienced this. This along with Stauber's "Opal" is media i am grateful for because it's a life I felt alone in and I couldn't see anyone else like me around. Child neglect isn't spoken about a lot.
Because according to many whites in TH-cam comments sections, white people all have sky high IQs, they are the most civilized and law abiding people in the history of the known universe, they were responsible for all ancient civilizations including ones in Africa and The Indus Valley in India where they'd have constantly got sunburn and skin cancer thousands of years ago and because the world would fall apart if they ceased to exist and stuff like that, so this video *must* be fake. Can't you see the white genocide conspiracy agenda against white people? Are you some kind of SJW Libtard?
😁 Good job Mom 3 years! Congrats. One day at a time. What a brilliant young woman we need her to help others in this crisis of opiate addiction. Love, Recovering addict ♡

@I_Slayyy_Dragonzz 777 My parent used Herion and when I was 6 years old CPS was called and we were taken away for almost 3 years. I moved back my parents were clean but then my mother became sick with Cancer from the years of drug use. Once she passed I was 11 and my father started using shortly after that. So 11 to 13 I took care of everything. Cleaning, Cooking, Laundry, and watching my little sister. When I was 13 CPS took us away again. My dad was unable to change his ways and died when I was 18.
How on earth is this kid so wise? Maybe her grandparents intervened early enough to provide stable support? She's so positive about making right choices despite having been in a toxic destructive environment. Wow! She's an example of a self-responsible person that makes healthy choices despite overwhelming negative circumstances. Her parent? What a screw up. Sorry, there's no excuse for being loser drug addict when you have a kid that need you.
Poor girl.. There's enough of us that this should be a much more attended issue. Nobody looks for these things, and it damages the kids for ages. They have noone to help them understand, and never feel comfortable confiding in what they really experience day to day in fear of life change or retaliation
I consider myself the parent and my Mom the kid , i know exactly the feeling.
Ningi that comment hit deep for me too.
Something an adult should ever have to relate to from their childhood. I’m sorry for your difficult lives, you had to miss out on your childhood.
dude this comment literally hits home so hard
God bless u. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

I'm so glad this amazing girl has found happiness and her mom is sober!

She is a very resilient one!
She’s incredible. Go on to your dreams baby girl.
It just breaks my heart how many kids are dealing with this its just unfair because many don't even have support for stuff like this.😢
She is such a beautiful little girl besides being very mature and strong.
As a teenager who has addict parents. It doesn’t just effect the parents, it affects the kids as well. I was fiending for myself. however, now in a better situation.
I’m too scared to say anything to my parents. They just fought over who would have the last “cookie”
What a strong girl. God bless her!
Honey, I'm hugging you. My parents died when I was 5 and 11 from heroin. Im holding you dearly. Youre such a stong women. Keep your head up
I hope she continues being sober for the rest of her life.
Precious little girl; Im so sorry sweetie. I’m glad you have your grandparents.
We adopted our grand daughter. She has lived with us since birth. We feel so honored to raise her and we love her so much.
what an angel of a girl.
What an amazing young girl, praying she doesn’t fall into the trap of addiction as well
What a very special and strong little girl! You should be so very proud of yourself sweetie. I know how hard it is to overcome
This epidemic is nasty i pray for all families who suffer from their love ones choice to do drugs
You have the fortitude to do great things in your life.

So many have stories like this, it's the children that will bear the burden. Be well.❤
Drug addiction is one of the saddest situations this world has to offer.
so sad this innocent child went through so much.. may god be with her & lead her into a blessed life
Poor kid. How was she was not taken years ago?
Spike 1984 my mom was the same and I wasn’t taken until I was 12
Broken system. Kids that shou of be kept with good families are taken out of them and kids that should be taken out of bad families are kept there.
You are brave and you will make a great impact on this earth
I know how she feel
I sincerely hope that this child got the help that she so deserved..
My heartbreaks for this little lady💔 So intelligent 🧠 *Prayers going up* 👆🏿 🙏🏿
It’s so sad that how much I can relate to this girl😔 glad my grandparents toke care of me or I would’ve followed in my moms footsteps, she stopped doing drugs up until I turned 13 though so my life is going good I guess
Lovely young lady.
I wish I could hug this girl because I know what it’s like living with a drug addicted mother. My mom still uses meth to this day and all I can do is accept this is how she wants to live her life and just love her… I know it might sound wrong but I got only one mother.
Oh gosh 😢
What an inspirational and brave young lady. I thank God addiction did not affect my parents and that they were high functioning despite suffering mental and physical illnesses.
I hope that Tori is doing well and enjoying life as she should. God bless her, her wonderful grandparents and the spirit of her late uncle. 🙏🏼
Such a strong young girl I know what it feels like it’s hard to even put into words what the feeling is like
What about terminally ill cancer patients and people that needed emergency surgery? Should those people be denied oxycontin or morphine? That being g said I'm glad this young woman is okay.
What are talking about these are MEDICAL drugs. Drug addiction to things like meth, and heroine is completely different.
What an awesome young lady!!!
I’m 16 now and I’m feeling exactly like her. I don’t know what to do, I don’t have grandparents and my dad is over seas.
How much parents love their children and children love their parents? Have you watched the film “Lorenzo’s oil” starring Nick Nolte and Susan Sarandon as the parents of a child sick with a rare incurable brain disease who research and work incessantly to find a cure to save their son’s life? That never happened with addiction, the so called “family disease”. Not only parents and children of addicts, likewise psychologists, psychiatrists and rest of humanity, didn’t research the affliction, when just reading the big book of Alcoholics Anonymous (which the mainstream of addiction recovery programs are based on) and being honest to want to understand is enough to understand that addiction is the psychology of a liar, but silence the truth that would save their so called “loved ones”. Are you queuing in the crowded comforting lies or alone in the unpleasant truths? Do you believe addiction is an incurable brain disease that affects young healthy criminals that has never been found or detected by any biological or other means? The only common denominator between all addicts from any social background or distinction is that they are notorious liars. Humanity are dying deceived deceiving living a lie because parents don’t teach their children to be honest because are not honest themselves. The truth is addiction is the tormented psychology of an unforgiving liar, drugs don’t cause addiction and only liars get hooked and only honesty gets freedom. The tragedy of addiction is children who revenge a childhood hurt, or trauma, against their parents learning from example becoming victims of themselves so as to conceal the hatred to hurt others, advertising themselves as victims stealing attention. In life like in psychology events and behaviours happen for a reason. Addiction runs in families because psychologies, behaviours, beliefs and else are transmitted from parents to children, like father like son, because humanity don’t think for oneself, otherwise there would be agreement on the truth. Hate, lie, hurt, ignorance comes from hate, lie, hurt, ignorance and addiction appears in bad families of parents who hurt their children. I am a recovering addict, a fool who knows that is a fool, a wise man. I don’t know much but i know what i know. The truth is stagnated among liars and when the unpublishable truth is published mortality rates would collapse provoking humanity’s addiction recovery, a burst of psychology, guilt, shame that was bottled up, desensitised, ignored in active addiction. The war, nightmare of living a lie would end because would be proven that you are like i impossibility possible miracle God.
strong kid
Smart little strong kid!
God bless this woman’s grandparents. I can relate to this young woman’s story. When you notice a child is too mature for his or her age, this can be a major sign of drug abuse in the home.
Glad she is awake and is calling out her Moms addiction. The truth truly sets a person free. Whether knowing it, or telling it.
Poor girl. Shes so grown up and its sad really. I thinl she gonns grow to be a great person
my mother went through the same stuff, she always made sure her boys had food and clothes on their backs.
I had the same childhood as Tori 😢 During the 2000s opioid epidemic, the public judged & ostracized addicts. I grew up trying to cover up my mothers severe pill addiction, excuse her bizarre behavior, & protect her from this harsh world. Glad times have changed where there’s less stigma attached & more empathy. Ultimately, addicts have suffered enough in life from underlying trauma, pain, and/or mental health problems. Everyone deserves to be treated equally ❤💪🙏
You should listen to this music “SMBA - Heroine”. He wrote this song about his mom’s addiction. A lot of people relate to this song and got healed ❤️🩹
Tory may God touch your life May he hold his hand on you and May He give you the strength to continue your journey.
The way you are handling your tough situation is inspiring!
It's sad .
Incredible young lady! I’m sure she is 18 years old by now and I hope she continues to tell her story……..because it does help other kids to know it’s “OK” to tell someone when things are bad at home. Telling her story will help her heal from her trauma. ❤️❤️❤️
She’s beautiful too
She is a beautiful little girl.... well she would be 18 now. I hope she is thriving and has a great life. ♥️♥️🙏
Young lady you are not alone. I’m hugging you from my soul. You are not alone I know you feel you are ❤❤❤❤
Don't know how she is right now, but I wish her well - she may not have had a great start which was completely out of her control but i hope she goes places as she obviously has a strong soul
i hope she do good.
this is how i grew up
Wow tori is so brave!!!
She goes to my high school wtf I found this video on complete accident
This is so relatable, I had to deal with my mom doing this exact stuff while I was growing up
@carrolWilson-ml2zu that’s true, but they don’t help everyone. They messed up my mom to the point she almost died, she also did methamphetamine
@carrolWilson-ml2zu I wish that would’ve worked for my mom how it worked for you, but sadly it didn’t
Wow, It takes a lot of courage and bravery to come forward to tell your story, of what you had seen. Drug addiction not only hurts the user, but their friends and family as well. I’m glad that Tori was able to get her story out to spread awareness, this can help others say that this won’t last forever and that we can overcome this with the proper treatment/care. Praise the Lord that her mom is doing better now.
My dads an addict, lie's all the time and thinks his blatant lies are believed. He's not only destroying his life but ours as well.

Sad...
Hi my mom also use drugs I'm 8 years old and I feel just like you are. What else can I do to feel better. I hope you have a better life over the years.
What a bright little girl she became.
UPDATE!!!
I lived a life like this girl, i am glad they are sharing this. It feels deeply isolating i don't know other people that experienced this. This along with Stauber's "Opal" is media i am grateful for because it's a life I felt alone in and I couldn't see anyone else like me around. Child neglect isn't spoken about a lot.
So true
WHAT. A. BEAUTIFUL. PURE. SOUL💓
Life is unfair
Poor girl 😪
Me and this girl are too relatable
I was just a teenager barely hitting puberty they wanted it to happen
WOW! amazing story, very heart touching.
Why do people think this is fake?
Because according to many whites in TH-cam comments sections, white people all have sky high IQs, they are the most civilized and law abiding people in the history of the known universe, they were responsible for all ancient civilizations including ones in Africa and The Indus Valley in India where they'd have constantly got sunburn and skin cancer thousands of years ago and because the world would fall apart if they ceased to exist and stuff like that, so this video *must* be fake. Can't you see the white genocide conspiracy agenda against white people? Are you some kind of SJW Libtard?
You keep spreading the message dear
God bless you so much, special child of God 😭😭😭😭💕💕💕
😁 Good job Mom 3 years! Congrats. One day at a time. What a brilliant young woman we need her to help others in this crisis of opiate addiction.
Love, Recovering addict ♡
This is happening to me
I know how you feel but it does get better. I know how hard it is. I’m so sorry you have to go through this.

God I'm so sorry sweet girl.
If you ever get to read this i admire you for your strenght.

My mom is a prescription drug addict too. I would also have to play the role of parent and she the child. The feeling is so bad 😔

Wow. Amazing courage! 💕
This was the lifestyle I had as a child. Both my parents are deseased the time I was 18. I was an adult by 12.
@I_Slayyy_Dragonzz 777 My parent used Herion and when I was 6 years old CPS was called and we were taken away for almost 3 years. I moved back my parents were clean but then my mother became sick with Cancer from the years of drug use. Once she passed I was 11 and my father started using shortly after that. So 11 to 13 I took care of everything. Cleaning, Cooking, Laundry, and watching my little sister. When I was 13 CPS took us away again. My dad was unable to change his ways and died when I was 18.
How on earth is this kid so wise? Maybe her grandparents intervened early enough to provide stable support? She's so positive about making right choices despite having been in a toxic destructive environment. Wow! She's an example of a self-responsible person that makes healthy choices despite overwhelming negative circumstances. Her parent? What a screw up. Sorry, there's no excuse for being loser drug addict when you have a kid that need you.
Why is the Subtitle Late?
Aww baby girl 💔💜
Poor girl.. There's enough of us that this should be a much more attended issue. Nobody looks for these things, and it damages the kids for ages. They have noone to help them understand, and never feel comfortable confiding in what they really experience day to day in fear of life change or retaliation
She is adorable!!!
on the bright side...
that's one way to get into college👍
Drug addicts shouldn’t have kids. If you wanna do it fine but dont have kids while doing drugs. So many kids torn, broken and messed up due to it
The only one that could truly understand her pain, is someone who's had a parent or parents that were addicts!
Tori is absolutely beautiful and a survivor!
I JUST said to my counselor how I'm the parent in the relatioship between my mom and I.
