[CONTENT WARNING]: Sexual abuse of a minor, rape of a minor, potential school shooting scenarios, attempted suicide, and sexual exploitation.

Today, Jan is joined by Cheryl Hall, who tells the story of her daughter’s abuse. In part one, Cheryl talks about how her daughter’s neurodivergence led her to interpret the rules of sexual behavior as black and white. She was manipulated, coerced, and raped by a schoolmate. This led to a hospitalization following a suicide attempt. After being released from treatment she was exploited and the cycle of sexual abuse continued.
