Title: Tears of the Silenced Pdf An Amish True Crime Memoir of Childhood Sexual Abuse, Brutal Betrayal, and Ultimate Survival
#1 Amazon Best Seller! ─ Surviving child abuse, parental betrayal and sexual assault
Misty Griffin's courageous life story sheds light on the hidden, untold, stories of the MeToo movement.
A true crime memoir: When Misty was six years old her family started to live and dress like the Amish. Misty and her sister were kept as slaves on a mountain ranch where they were subjected to almost complete isolation, sexual abuse, and extreme physical violence. The two young girls were too terrified to escape, they also knew that no rescue would ever come because only a few people even knew they existed and they did not know them well enough to care. The strict religious clothing the family wore acted as a barrier no one was willing to breach in order to check on the girl's welfare.
Amish Sexual abuse: When Misty reached her late teens, her parents feared she and her sister would escape and took them to an Amish community where they were adopted and became baptized members. Misty was devastated to once again find herself in a world of fear, animal cruelty and sexual abuse. Going to the police was severely frowned upon. A few years later, Misty was sexually assaulted by the bishop. As Misty recalls, "Amish sexual abusers are only shunned by the church for six weeks, a punishment that never seems to work. After I was assaulted by the bishop I knew I had to get help and one freezing morning in early March I made a dash for a tiny police station in rural Minnesota. After reporting the bishop I left the Amish and found myself plummeted into the strange modern world with only a second or third-grade education and no ID or social security card. To all abuse survivors out there, please be encouraged, the cycle of abuse can be broken. Today, I am a nursing student and a child abuse and sexual assault awareness activist. This is my story."
If you have read Scared Selfless, A Child Called It, The Sound of Gravel, or Etched In Sand, then Tears of the Silenced is a must read.
She said the author did a very good job with the truth I questioned a lot of what might go on in an Amish community. Than I shared this book with a friend who used to be Amish. She said the author did a very good job with the truth. I was shocked. It is upsetting to me that parents (mothers, brothers, sisters) can be silenced and that's ok. NO, its not ok and I appreciate Misty Griffin doing something about it.Couldn't put it down. A great book I could not put this book down. It was so sad what the author went through. I wanted to know what became of her after all she went through. I have read many stories about the Amish so some of this was no surprise to me. I just wish people would have helped her and believed her story when she and her sister were youngerGreat book This was such a sad story, but it certainly proved that if someone dreams to have a future, even when the reality that she can is so against her, she can overcome her past & have that bright future. Misty is such a smart girl to have written this book, after having virtually no education. Highly recommended.
