Disingenuous...probably.
They will exploit you, restrain you, violate you, malign you, even drug you, and strip away all that defines you in an effort to destroy you. Given time, they will break the child’s will (for some their will to live). Yet, the control over that fate is also deprived of the captive. Death is both promise and threat.
To survive them is to defeat them. To survive with some semblance of your spirit intact and to then become something that isn’t just a tragic parody of the perpetrator is to overcome them. To live through it is tough. To thrive in the life you make for yourself after is fuckin’ badass.
