Suffer the Child: Suffer the Child

I read this book in high school. And have reread it many times. It has everything you could possible need in regards to interest. Multiple personality, psychology, satanism, child abuse, based on a true events...this is the third time I’ve replaced this book as I’ve lent it out too many times. Will probably just buy for others from now on.

My sister leant me this book years ago and I could not put it down. Actually, once I got to the final chapter, I didn't want it to end and unfortunately never picked it back up to finish it before returning it. I read the version published in 2001 and cannot wait to re-read it and see if there are any differences between the two. I just ordered it yesterday and absolutyabsolutyely cannot wait for its arrival! Extremely well written and great yet horrifying story that everyone should read at some point or another.

I read this book first when I was in 8th grade then again in 11th. I'm now in my first year of college and am reading it again. This book is amazing and a good source for MPD research. It has references in it as you read. It is horrifying what Jenny went through. This book tells you just how cruel people can be to each other and to children. Suffer the Child tells a lot about Satanic rituels. It is graphic and hard to believe but it is true! Judith Spencer hit the nail on the head with this book proving that MPD can exist with more than few personalities. I know this is a book that I will read many times and still be amazed every time I read it.

This is one of the best non-fiction books I have ever read. Judith Spencer really looks into her subject thoroughly before writing and publishing. I recommend this book to anyone looking into the subject of ritual abuse or Dissociative Identity Disorder (formerly referred to as Multiple Personality Disorder.) Also, after reading this book, try reading her other book Satan's High Priest. The two books are related. You will get a whole new perspective on evil in our times, and perhaps better understand how tough it is for adult survivors of ritual abuse.
