Brookes closes the door and starts to cry, prompting the person who is filming to turn off the camera.
‘If you’re wondering what religious abuse is, here,’ she captioned the clip.
The teen, who is believed to be American, used the hashtag #emancipation, suggesting that she is considering legally separating from her parents before she turns 18.
The video, which has been viewed more than 250,000 times, has received an outpouring of support from other TikTok users, including other Christians.
‘There’s no hate like Christian love,’ one person wrote, while another added: ‘As a Christian I’ll never understand how they think this is okay. This is the complete opposite of what God stands for.
