The way the judge spoke in the beginning could have focussed a lot less on telling her that no one cares about her. Obviously it’s ok to firmly address her to let her know the baby is the priority, And then even letting the people know that he is biased and presumes failure. At such a young age, NO ONE expected her to succeed. No one. And you can claim to care about that baby all you want, but if you don’t want the 15 year old abused mother who is STILL in your care to succeed, you don’t want that baby to either. Period.
Watching the way the judge and social worker both spoke to this girl is painful. The social worker saying her own daughter is struggling and then thinking that the way she’s speaking to this young girl is appropriate/helpful is *chefs kiss*…. The pressure, manipulation, projection, guilt-tripping, co-dependance, etc. is overwhelming even for me just witnessing it as a viewer. I cannot even begin to fathom how this young girl felt
One story of success doesn't speak to the millions of fatherless children born to irresponsible teenage girls. Society has tanked because of single parenthood. Its absolute garbage.
If you are reading this Melissa, well done on everything you've achieved in your life and all the tough decisions you've made along the way. You should be very proud of yourself.
“I don’t care bout you” To say this to a 15y old child who has been failed by so many,what a great example of a “smart” ADULT This 15y old girl PROVED everyone wrong,I hope that judge chocked on his mean words
My thoughts exactly. It’s despicable how this court is handling this literal CHILD. ETA- omg. This judge is absolutely disgusting. I hope he is long gone from the bench, wtf. The constant blaming of a child for their circumstances in life is just…wow.
@@Naturegurl124 the judge speaking like that is not a wake up call, it’s confirming what she already knew; that no one cared. Which for a child is the biggest sole factor in whether or not they themselves care. As someone who was also removed by CPS from addicted parents, and LUCKILY, because it’s luck, ended up turning out well and accessing ample services to help myself when I got older, I promise you it’s NOT “too late to change that”, and that was no a wake up call. Even just one single person showing unconditional love and true support can make all the difference. Even today, as a 28 almost 29 year old mother of 2 disabled children (we have a genetic variant I was unaware of), with an amazing fiancé, if my mother woke up and started caring it would STILL make a difference in my life. Save what difference could have been made had someone cared when I was 15. There is a way to inform someone the priority is now the child, while also letting them know that they are still loved, supported, and hoped for. When everyone is making bets on you to fail, don’t be shocked when they do.
I’m 47 and ran from some abusive foster homes. Nobody listened. Well, I won’t lie at my age about it. Some are truly horrible, it’s why they run. Not all are bad.
What a great outcome overall, Melissa was a smart & loving little girl at one time with parents who failed her. Great to see her succeed and do right by her own child ❤
This is a wonderful story and update. I would love to see a follow-up in more detail of outcome, and what Melissa could share with other teens for their own success surviving what she did...
@JayCWhiteCloud - Very happy you watched her story, and thank you for asking about a more detailed update. We are working on that now and can't wait for people to see what an inspiration Melissa is for others! Thank you again for watching and commenting!
@CalamariProductions I'm excited and happy to read that!!! Can't wait for the video. As a former Clinician who worked with this population of challenged young people, I love the success stories...
While I'm sure it was very hard to give her daughter up I think she did the right thing. Melissa if you see any of these comments just know that you're a strong and caring woman and mother.
I am glad this judge was not fooling around with her. I am glad she had the baby and decided to continue school. Have her child adopted. This foster mother was a good mother. She was patient with Milissa. Milissa was lucky to have her despite all she did. She had a heart for Melissa. I am that she is doing well and have her own family. I’m sure she still thinks if Reven. I wonder if she still sees her foster mother
@@tammyhavlik1015 unfortunately not, 90% of open adoptions are terminated before the child’s third birthday by the adoptive parents due to no real legal upholding of it.

Melissa your amazing you overcame so much abandonment and fought to be there for Ravon ❤ incase no one ever told you this .. none of this was your fault!!! Your parents gave up and you never did Ravon is gorgeous and was thriving Karen is also amazing I hope they are all doing well in their lives now especially be great to hear how Ravon is she looked just like a normal happy baby I would never have known she had a brain injury
Melissa, I hope you get a chance to read all these comments. So many people seem to love you when they didn't even know you, they just saw your story. Giving raven up for adoption had to be tremendously hard. But you most likely felt in your heart and soul that it was the most selfless and best decision. You played the cards the best you were dealt with. Your story is amazing, and inspiring.
“Convinced” to let her child be adopted… when you lose a baby, doesn’t matter how it leaves such a big hole in your heart. You will try to fill that hole with either good or bad things. Unfortunately those fillings are fragile and when they crack it brings all of the hurt back. I never knew emotional pain could physically hurt so bad. When the fillings are negative things like drugs or bad relationships and something happens to form a crack pieces just fall off and you run the risk of becoming numb and essentially without a heart. When the fillings are good things like healthy relationships, solid hobbies and jobs, those cracks hurt so bad but it fills in quickly. I don’t know if that even made sense, it’s so hard to put into words.

I’m sure the foster mom was great an immediate need, but u never heard any love for Melissa, just more like a job or responsibility - that’s hard…really hard - but Melissa still rose above all the odds - that should be idolized- YOUR AMAZING MELISSA!!
