"In her research Jill Mytton worked with 262 adults (95 women and 167
men) who had lived in a religious group as children. Around 70 per cent
of the sample lost their family on leaving, 27 per cent reported child
sexual abuse and 68 per cent had found the experience of leaving
traumatic."
Jill Mytton says: "Second-generation adult survivors of high-demand
groups face particular difficulties, not only during their childhood,
but also upon leaving the group, because they face assimilation into a
culture that is not just alien to them but also one that they have been
taught is wicked and to be hated."
