Summary
Child Abuse True Stories presents the penultimate volume of Kat Ward's sensational autobiography! Just months after Kat Ward was vindicated in a high-profile court case brought against her by a British celebrity, listeners can now download part six of her fascinating life story.
Despite leaving the courtroom with her reputation intact, Kat's inner life was in turmoil, and it was only due to the loyal support and steadfast encouragement of her ever-increasing fan-base that she managed to complete the sixth volume so soon.
Following on from the fifth book, in which she lost her identity but somehow found herself a husband, Karin now finds herself in the precarious position of having to move in with her partner's family - a move known to strain even the tightest of marital bonds.
But, tight bonds are seldom established by those who grew up learning not to trust, and the status of being the only black sheep in a house full of sacred cows eventually takes an irreparable toll on the marriage; forcing the young Karin out of the house and onto the streets.
In what might be described as the first truly "grown up" volume in the series, Kat, now in her 20s, is left with no choice but to face the world completely alone. Homeless, penniless, and holding the (not just proverbial) baby, she resorts to begging by the roadside in order to get by.
Her desperate search for protection leads her down some dark alleys, and before long, she realizes the uncomfortable truth: that shelter is a commodity to be bargained for. And, with little more than her dignity to bargain with, it is perhaps not surprising that the arms she ends up in are not all tender and loving. In fact, she soon finds she needs protection from the protection itself - a theme all too familiar for readers and listeners of the prior books. The woman who was abused her entire childhood now recounts her terror at being subjected as an adult to violent alcoholic rages, false accusations, and even rape at the hands of her sadistic tormentor, who insists on holding her captive. Once again in need of an escape route, she makes a daring bid for freedom. Yet, despite coming so close, she falls short and ends up swapping one set of bars for another.

what a terrible life to have lived
I have to admit I feel disappointed with her attitude towards her own children after how she was treated...but at the same time, how could you possible know how that would feel rasing kids having being hated yourself your whole life.

Captivating story
I've read all 6 books and I'm looking forward to listening to number 7.
I am willing and praying this poor young girl's story gets better from this tragic end of the story.

Very good
Now listened to all bar 5 and 7 because audible does not have these. Good considering I jumped a big section and not sure when audible will hold the ones missing. Totally disappointed with that!!!

from full love and support to disappointment
I have been a complete supporter of this poor woman's life of incredible unimaginable pain and trauma, how she survived and told her harrowing story. However, i find such a contradiction in this book to all of the previous books is a big let down. from all the years of abuse and life lessons that have clearly been stated and understood with regards to feeling unloved and unwanted..to so openly destroying and breaking the hearts of her children who are more than likely reading and listening to this book- that she had no love for them couldn't even try to make the effort that was shown for her animals, yet continued to cause as much distress and disruption to them in their young lives as possible - for what ? not out of love? just questioned a lot of sympathy I once had. I understand the trauma and psychology is a major factor... but for everything that happened to an obviously very strong intelligent woman- the need to keep the victim mentality narrative even at the expense of total destruction of her living children's hearts and souls. felt very self centred and selfish when she could have inspired and changed the world...almost like she was proud others had suffered because she suffered-so tough!
