Unwanted and homeless from day one: Social services found Jennie a new home. Tragically she was enslaved into a brutal regime of horrific abuse, extreme neglect, loss and degrading humiliation with foster parents.

It continued behind closed doors in a seemingly well-respected household for twenty-three years. The foster family trafficked her to other sickening perpetrators of organised abuse rings. The death of both foster parents did not stop the hideous abuse, which continued for decades as Jennie and her son were hunted down despite moving thirty-six times.

Jennie developed DID Dissociative Identity Disorder to survive a way for her to cope with the traumatic events she’d suffered through out her life.

All Jennie knew was shocking betrayal – including what she discovered from her social service records years later.

How she and her son survived is unfathomable, but Jennie's remarkable resilience shines through as she refuses to give up.

“The Stabards were excused from the previous allegation of abusing children in their care.”

“Noted that Faith and Jennie are possibly being sexually abused by the Stabards. If we were to investigate this, our problem would be, who would care for these misfits in society.”

“It is in the best interest to stay where they are as it is regarded they will not have any long-term problems as to the result of the abuse.”

“These Children are lucky to be placed in a home setting with experienced foster carers.”

Social care notes 1965 - 1974

Jennie now speaks out helping professionals, families and children understand the trapping of abuse offering empathy and support as she turns what was hell into hope for others and herself.

5.0 out of 5 stars How Strong the Human Spirit Can Be
Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2024
Dehumanisation by Jennie Grace is the True Story of Organised Child Abuse. Jennie shares her terrific and tragic story shedding light on all the services who should have been there to support her and tragically let her down. From social services, hospitals, organisations, and those who are supposed to be the safety net system for all but especially children who are so vulnerable.
It is absolutely shocking what Jennie went through without anyone to prevent the abuse and it made me sick to my stomach with the evil that these people subjected their foster children too. Their tiny lives subjected to such horrific abuse by the very people who should have been looking out for them and not the ones who neglected and tortured them.
This book gives a voice to the children and brings awareness to prevent the next tragedy somewhere in this world of ours. This is a book to help everyone to become educated and to learn the signs to make us all more aware of these vulnerable young people who we bring into this world and who deserve to be treated fairly and humanly as children should be.
This book shows how strong the human spirit can be and how much we can survive. Momentous changes need to happen. Thank you for speaking out Jenni and doing all you can to help others. Thank you to Jenni and Samuel Grace for giving me a free advance copy of the book to preview and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2024
Such a tragic life . Very well written and held my attention . I read this book in one day because I couldn't put it down .

It makes you wonder how many other children experienced this torture from the system.

I'm glad Jennie could put her story to words . Hopefully it helped to ease the pain she experienced .

5.0 out of 5 stars What a nightmare!
Reviewed in Canada on March 10, 2024

I found this book so hard to read. Maybe because it's written in the first person and I know these were Jen's personal experiences. I couldn't get to 10% on my Kindle without crying for this poor little innocent baby. A baby! Just a wee baby!! I had to read in 10-minute increments. This was the first I've heard of organized abuse rings and I was shocked. How is this going on? How do humans treat other humans like that? And I'm not referring only to abusers but professionals as well. People need to do their jobs and protect children. A doctor needs to speak TO the patient and not just take the word of a foster mother. And where is the social worker every time this confused child is admitted to hospital? And, seriously, in an adult's hospital? Unbelievable!

I am so proud of you, Jen, for overcoming this horrific abuse, and I send you hugs, hugs, and more hugs. You really are an inspirational woman, not just of the year.

It's unbelievable what goes on in the world and to know that there can be foster parents like this and so evil. When a child is placed with a foster family or adoptive family these people should be 100% safe and its wrong on so many levels that they get away with it abusing children like they do, not all adoptive families will be bad but obviously there is some that are. And it's saddening when Jen did speak out she wasn't believed and I don't know her but I truly believe her story and it would have taken great courage to write and tell her story and relive it and go into detail, such amazing woman and I hope her and her son have a great and happy peaceful future as they truly deserve it

It is devastating to be made aware of the cruelty some children have to suffer. This book made me cry several times, no just the abuse but the lack of support from everyone's in authority who should have be there for all children
A real page turner, have your tissues ready

It is horrifying that any person should have to go through such awful abuse by anyone, but for that abuse to be from all angles. From social services, hospitals, organisations and those who are supposed to be the safety net. This brave lady and her son suffered not only failures, but abuse by the system that was supposed to protect them. No wonder abuse victims find it so hard to speak out or get help. The entire system is set up to revictimise them. Big changes need to happen. Thank you for speaking out and doing all you can to help others.

5.0 out of 5 stars An amazing story of courage and survival.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 8, 2023

A well overdue book. A courageous true memoir from two amazing people who survived the most horrific of events. A tough read with regards to what they went through mixed with humour in places, a humour that helped to get them both to where they are today, a place where they want to help others by sharing their story through this book.
Jennie is a remarkable woman she should never have had to go through what she went through during her childhood let alone the failure of the vary organisations who where there and should have protected her. All this has made her the strong and courageous woman she is today, there is so much we can learn from Jennie through her story and her desire to make sure her story is never allowed to be repeated again to anybody.
