Her father invoked the Bible and his role as the “head of the household” to justify extreme control, isolation, and ab*se, until Mae and her mother finally moved out and she began experiencing freedom for the first time.Click here to watch on YouTubeFind and support Mae!YT: https://www.youtube.com/@maedenIG photography: https://www.instagram.com/maeden.photo/IG: https://www.instagram.com/maedenart/Our Costa Rica Vacation has sold out!
