Filling The Shoes Of Absent Parents

Send us a text

Savannah Tuttrup grew up with two parents that battled addiction. She moved from Iowa to Las Vegas when she was 24 years old with her younger sister, who she has been a parental figure to for her entire life. Savannah and her sister are only 9 years apart, so she took on the role of a parent as a child herself.

Some major topics covered:
- what it was like for her to witness her parents struggling with addiction
- the pressure of being a role model/guardian for a sibling
- how she has become better equipped to be a parent when she does decide to have kids
