How does someone NOT escape from a tent?

The mind can be a prison- perhaps he lied to them? The traumas can cause all kinds of “odd” reactions- like attaching to the man who did this.

How does someone NOT escape from a tent? Being raped repeatedly and physically abused as a child produces a fear and hopelessness that eventually swallows anything else.
How does one grow to be an adult in the modern world in such a Pollyanna state of cluelessness that they would even ask that question

There is also the method used by certain men where they tell the girl she is “damaged” and that the family will not want her back. If he can break her spirit enough she starts to believe and will not accept that her family would want her back after what has happened to her. Pimps use this method on young girls routinely. One of the best fictional depictions of this is is the book “No Remorse”.
