You are perfectly clear to me. Personally, I would rather tough it out then send any of my offspring to Barney's home. That's my opinion, which I am entitled to and of which I HAVE been demonized by the very people that in the above post are being touted as saintly and Godly and doing more than murmuring exmembers. (I could compile a list of names I've been called by those very people.) What a clever and vicious way to describe people. Why is that ok, but no one dare breath a word of concern about people that may be taking in exmembers but at the same time are teaching them similar patterns and spiritual abuses. If it's just a case of taking people in, heck, they can go to a F. home, they take in more people than Barney ever does or did. That should qualify them as saintly status and yet, in my mind at least, it doesn't. I shudder at the thought of my grandchildren growing up in that group, yet they appear happy, healthy and well taken care of, so why should I be concerned? According to the abover poster before you, I should be thrilled and bowing down to them for what they are doing in the way of physical benefits. However, what goes on within those walls negates all the other good things. I'm surprised at how everything is being drawn up as black and white by someone who accuses exmembers of thinking that way.
