Reminds me of mandatory military service in Africa, most people hate having to do it because it's a waste of time for them (1 year) they complain about the tough work but I haven't heard any of my friends saying they were traumatized by it. Which leads me to believe the "kidnapping" is probably the cause for these people's troubles, because for military service you'll know 3 months prior or something, or the culture difference might play a role into why different people take it differently.
