    Yes. This man actually took care of me & treated me well as long as I didn’t put up any resistance. He taught me math, English, Kazakh, science, etc. school stuff almost daily. Fed me well, got me nice clothes. Brought me books, games, toys and stuff. I had a TV with a gaming console and DVD player, a CD player for music, a PC (with no Internet)… so I don’t feel like I’ve been dumbed down. But I lost a lot social skills wise. He was the only person I interacted with. And to this day I’m a bit of a yes-man. It wasn’t a bunker. It was a renovated basement at first. After he believed I wouldn’t try anything, he let me around the house and outdoors to do housework and play.
