Fear is a very powerful thing. It's the reason so many people in abusive situations don't just leave, it’s not as easy as just walking out the door. People get brainwashed into believing all sorts of things.

Do you remember Shawn Hornbeck's case a couple months ago? The 15 year old who was found with another missing boy. Shawn had been missing for 4 years; he had new friends and lived a pretty "normal" life. Walking away would be "easy" if it was only physical and had no emotional or psychological attachment.
