Daughter of 'YouTube mum' child abuser Ruby Franke releases new memoir - what you need to know The eldest daughter of Ruby Franke, who was convicted of physically and emotionally abusing her children, has revealed the torment she went through in a new memoir.

In the memoir, The House of My Mother: A Daughter's Quest for Freedom, Ms Franke details for the first time what her childhood was like, how this changed when Hildebrandt moved into their family home, and if she has been able to forgive her mother.

Shari Franke, 21, who reached out to authorities and the CPS for help before her mother's arrest in August 2023, writes that she and her five siblings were subject to Franke's "twisted interpretation of crime and punishment all our lives".

Ms Franke said during an interview with ABC's Good Morning America (GMA) that she experienced abuse at the hands of her mother when she was five or six years old.

The mother of six, who gave parenting tips via a once-popular YouTube blog called "8 Passengers" convinced her two youngest children that they were evil, possessed and needed to be punished to repent.
