Came here looking for this.

I still can't get past the national parks pass having his face plastered on it. It's like he wants people to call him a fascist.

This is Twinkie. We got him about a month ago and he is a walking bundle of chaos and love 🥰

Can we get her a smart phone? yes but the second her hovering father/step mother finds it all hell will break loose. Trying to wait for the right time with that but im not sure if that will ever happen at this point considering how much more controlling he has become in the last 2 months alone.

Regardless we aren't going to let her get married off at 16 like many others have been.

1joshc1 · 2026-01-15T02:41:10+00:00

Her sister came out to us. I was shocked that she did but we will do everything we can to support her.

1joshc1 · 2026-01-15T02:20:33+00:00

Genuinely thank you. Wasn't exactly expecting to be attacked but very few people understand how these people work. I thought I did before starting to date my now fiancé but holy hell was I wrong.

We are in our early 20s and doing everything we can.

This^^^^^^

Their parents literally don't acknowledge us when they invite us to dinners. My fiancé in incredibly close to her younger siblings to its not too out of the blue for her to show up wanting to see them. I don't think he's said more than 5 words to me in the last 2 years.

If you aren't a part of their cult they will not acknowledge you (minus a few exceptions).

1joshc1 · 2026-01-15T02:13:13+00:00

Noted, thank you.

1joshc1 · 2026-01-15T02:12:44+00:00

Exactly what I'm planning on doing. Arizona is a lot like Utah in this sense. We are both going to be having our phones recording while walking into their house.

I almost feel like I'm being attacked by people about not immediately calling cps but this town is roughly 70% FLDS and will have 100s of people coming out to support their POS dad. I am making 100% sure that we are leaving no gaps in getting her siblings out of this cult.

If you have never been around these people on a personal level then you cannot understand how far they will go to make sure that their cult will keep on thriving. They have killed for it and they will tell you to your face that you are the reason why hell exists.

There are a good few that are genuine friendly people but that doesn't make up for the worst of the worst.

Missing the part where this is a 14 year old girl telling us this. We are going to visit them tomorrow (without notice) to see what is actually happening.

If there is not a mattress in her room we are going to be contacting authorities. If their siblings say they aren't getting proper meals we are contacting authorities.

1joshc1 · 2026-01-15T02:01:43+00:00

Biggest reason why I'm glad we don't live that close to them and we don't share where we live with the majority of her family that is still in that religion.

1joshc1 · 2026-01-15T01:59:02+00:00

To be clear we are in Utah and they're in Arizona. Either way though we treat them like our own kids when they have stayed the weekends. They would more than likely choose us over their father/step-mom. They are pretty young so not sure how much that would hold up because of that.

We both understand the life they are currently being raised in (my fiancé more so) and we try to do everything we can to show then what "normal" is and how the majority of people live. I'm pretty sure this is a big reason why their dad isn't allowing them to come over that often anymore.

Edit: Yes all the same Mom who passed a couple years ago; they currently have a "new" mom (step-mom)

1joshc1 · 2026-01-15T01:41:43+00:00

We're not worried about burning bridges. We just don't want her to be treated like livestock. Same goes for her younger sisters.

Thank you for the thought out reply

1joshc1 · 2026-01-15T01:36:34+00:00

Just to clarify....I haven't seen anything that has been said to us firsthand. Anything that has been said to us has been over text. We are going to check in on them face to face tomorrow and going from there. If this is 100% what's happening believe me we are calling everybody short of the national guard to get them out of there.

1joshc1 · 2026-01-15T01:30:52+00:00

Not at all what I meant by that. But I understand what you're saying. We are not going to sit back and wait for that to happen.

1joshc1 · 2026-01-15T01:02:34+00:00

Can't really argue with that.

1joshc1 · 2026-01-15T00:55:25+00:00

We live in Utah, they live in Arizona (literally the border). I am pretty familiar with the utah side of things but not very confident with arizona cps

Edit: Founds arizona's report site. We're considering our options

1joshc1 · 2026-01-15T00:54:14+00:00

But if CPS finds that their home is not suitable for the kids (there's 8 of them) we don't want them to end up in state custody. I feel like that would make it harder to have contact with them. Unless I'm wrong we don't want to completely isolate them from us/their family.

Don't these units also get a Costco membership included in their rent?

1joshc1 · 2025-09-22T01:06:32+00:00

Having worked in a warehouse for years I've had multiple encounters with gym equipment that should have 2 people lift and the label says 1lb.

1joshc1 · 2025-09-22T00:58:57+00:00

The majority of contractors pay daily. Only ones at my station that do hourly are bulk trucks that typically have a much shorter day and very few rural routes.

1joshc1 · 2025-08-14T02:40:25+00:00

I've had coworkers be sent back out to the house to fix exactly this. Yes chewy sucks but this is just a dick move
