#432: Chosen: A Memoir of Stolen Boyhood | Part 1

Trigger Warning: This episode contains descriptions of child sexual abuse. Listener discretion advised. 

When Stephen Mills was thirteen years old, he was sexually abused by a director of his Jewish summer camp. This abuse continued for years and Stephen carried this secret for decades. 

In his book, “Chosen” out now in paperback, Stephen details in raw powerful emotion how this offender was able to groom him, his parents, and the many prestigious communities where this offender worked and targeted his victims.

This is a must listen for parents to understand the red flags and psychology of how abusers target and groom children as well as others related to the victim. 

If you or someone you know is being abused please reach out to RAINN
