Untold Stories: How I Survived a Child Porn Ring

It must be heartbreaking and scary to live with no self worth, as young Timmy has, but to be beaten so badly, and exposed to atrocities no child should be exposed to, is at the very least a crime against humanity.This book really breaks down how child grooming is done, and I just wanted to reach out and grab this child and show him what a true mother’s love is.While this book does go into detail about the sexual abuse, physical and mental abuse of a child, it doesn’t seem to do it for gratification, thank God! If it greatly disturbs you to read about the abuse of a child, you should be wary going into this, as it’s heartbreaking.The parts I specifically appreciated were the ones about how easily it seemed to be to groom this child into what these sick men wanted. It’s a sneaky, creepy process that most us have no clue about. We want to love children in a healthy, normal way, and that most definitely involves protecting children with everything we have. It does not involve tricking any child into becoming a plaything for us, via grooming, blackmailing, abuse, and torture.The one problem I have with this book is the really poor editing, as if it had not been proofread. This unfortunately reads as one of my auto-corrected texts reads, which is usually funny in a text, but with the serious nature of this book, and the obvious time he took to write it, I find this sad. This must have been gut wrenching to live through these times again by writing this.To better bring the impact of this story home, I’d suggest having it proofread and edited. Colleges have plenty of students who would like the experience of doing this job, same with retired people like me. Our minds are still sharp! And people like me would do it for free.Just my opinions and suggestions.Thank you Mr. Fielding, I’m sure this was quite difficult to write, and I look forward to reading the outcome of the next book in your story.Have a wonderful life with your family.

This is an extraordinary story which is told well by the author who lived it. Lots of grammatical errors with no apparent editing, but it still reads well.

If you were in that position as I was then you would know what it was all about. there are very terrible people out there all over the world, just look at the youtube documentaries to see what this world is all about and what it does to kids. Although I was older (10) when I was involved I was there for 9 years and totally destroyed my childhood. I have nothing to look back on aside from the rapes and orgies. Sorry but it does go on today as it did for 50 years ago when I was 10. I cannot help it if people don't believe the story but that's why this is happening today, right now to some child in some corner of the earth and also right here in the greatest country on earth.As for the bad grammatical errors I can't deny that but this is a book of abuse to someone and not a English course in grade school, high school or college. That sits on the proofreaders and publishers lap in not taking the time and effort to go through the book properlyAll in all I have had a hard time getting through this two book and the author's other book "silent victims:...". I was part of that scene unfortunately and I think that these 2 books by the author are spot on. It's all true and people cannot hide behind the greatest cover ups, scandals and happenings because it's too horrible to think that it could ever happen. I'm sorry for every child that lost his or her soul to such behaviour, and not from low lives but very successful people who are very much apart of these disgusting happenings.One in six boys under the age of 16 and 5 girls under the age of 16 are abused every year. That is disgusting for sure. Believe it or not, that's the way it is unfortunately.Sorry people, almost all child abuse is by people that the child and family knows about and not some guy hiding behind a bush

I want to say I am only a few pages into this book and it is difficult to read, not because of the subject matter ( I haven't ventured that far yet) but because of the incredibly poor writing, editing and proofreading. One error which shows up in every paragraph is "track housing," instead of "tract housing." There are changes in tense from sentence to sentence, repeated punctuation errors, grammar and spelling are nonexistent. This book looks like a third grader typed it with his feet. As a writing rule, simple sentences can be powerful sentences, read: To Kill a Mockingbird. Every sentence here is almost a fragment, "I went to my desk. I sat down." I have a background in copyediting, so the errors here jump off the page at me, but you may find this book impossible to read even if you have only basic high school English. I was interested in the subject matter, not any prurient material, but this book is so terribly hard to read it may end up in the trash before I finish chapter one, assuming there are chapters. The two sentence description on the cover even has six errors.Update: Further checking, this got on the market via a "vanity" publisher, wherein the so-called author has to pay to have it published. Rates start at $899. Amazon, how could you be a party to such swill? At least take a look at it before you market such trash. Shame, shame!!!!!!!Further Update: After reading further into this garbage, it is strictly written as a novel, not as an expose or documentary as the cover would have you believe. The boy, a 3rd grader, is constantly subjected to medieval type torture: rack, whips & chains, even crucifixion hanging by his arms while being whipped by adults. When he goes home his mother beats him bloody, several times a chapter. He is gang raped by 16 men. Also beaten almost to death by high schoolers. Were this a true story it might have some social value, however slight. Instead it is kiddie porn without the pictures. Impossibly, the narrative seems to try and make us believe the boy enjoys it, or at least puts up with it, for money and gifts. I have filed two complaints with Amazon about this and heard nothing. How they could miss and publish vile sadistic trash like this is beyond all comprehension. It will not do anything for you but send you to the bathroom to put your head in the toilet.

I was a victim of a similar but less severe childhood. I've spent years struggling with challenges including insomnia, anxiety, trust issues, nightmares, suicidal ideation, guilt, addiction, depression, posttraumatic stress disorder, relationship issues, and sexual side effects.Timmy's trials are written from a child's viewpoint and were extremely helpful to me as I tried to understand what happened to me. Many parts were hard to read because they brought back memories that I'd rather not revisit. I noticed that these 'groups" employ the same tactics to keep their victims compliant. It's disturbing that the 'groups' have as many members as they do. Money appears to be key to the whole operation. All the 'group' members had lots of money along with a burning desire to 'own' the boys....body and soul. I was told over and over that I was loved, only to be hurt beyond comprehension.If you care to know what really happens to unwanted, unloved, and discarded boys--read these books! My thanks to Timmy for having the courage to document his heartbreaking childhood. It helped me make some sense out of what happened to me.

what Timmy Fielding went through made me feel what I suffered as a youngster was gentle. Reading his books have helped me to prepare for a adult survivors group that I will be attending soon To be honest I was in my teens when I fell into the hands of a stranger who went on to be friend my family but the acts he did against me have always stayed with me. for me the reason for keeping quiet was fear and humiliation and in those days male rape was unheard of. for Timmy things were a lot worse at just 9 yeas old and being abused so with such violence by someone you would think should love and protect you in the case of Timmy his mother then going on to be abused and raped by a teacher and pushed into such cruel sadistic films for his so called friends I cant begin to Even picture what Timmy went through Its no wonder this young boy felt so confused about the meaning of love having read the 1st 2 books its easy to understand why he on some occasions he enjoyed the sex with men who were paying him but other times scared out of his wits. this was very clearly a confused and brainwashed child lacking love from a mother and being tricked by a teacher into becoming a sex toy I now plan 2 read the 3rd to find out how he escaped his tormentors and made a strong recovery from his child life of hell

i have read alot of true life books but this one is truely shocking, the beatings he got off his mother, dave pelzer comes to mind, the child porn ring is something i know that happens but iv never read about it from a childs view, all i could think about is i cant wait to get to the part where he is rescued, a brilliant read, the few typos but that never bothered me, i could tell what he meant and so it didnt spoil the reading of it, anyone who likes reading true life books , this is a must read book , you will not be dissappointed, iv looked for timmys second book but it must't be out yet,,, a book i look forward to reading, 10/10 timmy, well done, you have been a very brave man to write your story, i can imagine how hard it was for you remembering all the horrible times in your life, i really hope its a happy ending, and you have now found some peace of mind and are happy... thankyou for giving us the chance to read about this awful thing that still happens now and i suppose will always happen, again i look forward to reading the second book...

I always enjoy a unique insight in area where angels fear to tread. This troubled soul presumably found writing these memoirs therapeutic and its was very interesting to discover that some people behind child pornography are wealthy professionals respectable in many quarters. However it doesn't inform any survival as it ends in the midst of it all and one is left bereft as to what happened, presumably to write more ! If it is all true, no-one should have to put up with a mother like this, I mean he found solace and affection from the 'group'.

By the time Timmy has reached 10yrs he has been exposed to things that no child should have to go through, again he is beaten at home by his abusive mother, although he knows what he is doing is wrong he welcomes the attention and affection he is getting from the ring but once he was in it was impossible to get out. He was now being forced to take part in pornographic films where lurid sex acts and torture were common. This second book forms part of a trilogy but be warned it is almost impossible to find the final book.
