I agree with all your points. However, I do see a "difference" in having chosen to join something, regardless of how deceived, manipulated, coerced, we were into it, or drugged out, messed up, lacking in emotional stability and fell into the trap syndrome, it was still a choice which they did not have. That is a fact and there is no getting around that. Perhaps we made a mistake in not checking out our sources, not listening to the warning signs, jumping on something so easily, all is possible, though now we are wiser, we still made a choice. True, we did not consciously join a pedophilic group or madman, all that was hidden from view, at least blatantly or did not come out until later, after we had been slowly boiled and shackled emotionally, but the fact is, we made a choice, even if we didn't have all the facts, we still made a choice. Our children never had that opportunity. I don't know what you mean by stating that "that difference is made the focus of the problems" - I didn't see any reference to that in Rocky's post. I stand by my statement.
