Drugs and addiction can make people do things they would never even consider under normal circumstances. Sadly, drug-addicted parents sometimes use their children to help feed their habits. A TikToker who posts as @hannahpaigeee shared a heartbreaking story about her childhood and how low her mother allegedly stooped for drugs. Hannah said that when she was 8 years old, her mother traded her to her next-door neighbor for a car and to pay her rent.

Hannah says her mom had a lot of different boyfriends and moved the family around a lot. At one point, they lived in Seattle and things got strange. Her mom and her boyfriend set up camcorders to record them and they built a weird relationship with the man next door.

Hannah said as she got older, she realized how “illegal and horrible” the living situation was and her parents never protected her.

“It was pretty normal to house hop,” Hannah explained. “Cut to the time where we moved up north and I lived with this creepy neighbor.”

Hannah said the neighbor built trust and groomed her by passing candy to her and her siblings through the fence. As time went on, she began spending more time in his home.

Hannah used the man’s computer to watch YouTube and claimed she found child sex abuse material. Even as a child she knew it was wrong, but claims her mother didn’t believe her.

“I brought it up to my mom and she brushed it off,” Hannah recalled. “Actually, no, she didn’t brush it off, she called me a liar. That’s what she did.”

Hannah said while at the neighbor’s home he subjected her to inappropriate TV shows like Dexter. He also made comments about her body and told her he liked his girls “skinny” so he kept her on a diet. She recalled a weird incident in the hot tub.

“He asked me at like 8 years old,” she remembered, “if I liked the jets in the hot tub.”

She said at night, he would watch her while she slept in his spare bedroom and he appeared aroused at the sight of her. Meanwhile, Hannah says the neighbor gave her mother a Prius and paid her rent in exchange for her daughter.

“As I’ve gotten older, I’ve realized how actually illegal and horrible that situation really was,” she admitted. “My mom would never acknowledge it.”

Her story saddened TikTokers, who didn’t understand how a mother could subject her child to such a person.

One commenter wrote: “Oh my god? I’m so sorry that happened to you, you still being here and getting through at all speak to your perseverance and character.”

“Moms are meant to protect their babies… sorry this happened to you love,” someone else commented.

“Your ‘mom’ is not a mom,” another TikToker chimed in. “A real mom protects her babies not hurt them. I pray you find healing.”

Others congratulated Hannah for speaking out and sharing her story.

“This infuriates me!!!” a comment reads. “I’ll will never EVER understand how a mother allows this kind of s— to happen. Absolutely sickening. I’m so sorry you had to grow up with this type of abuse. I hope as an adult you’ve created your own safe space.”
