The key is in your last sentence: "There's more freedom now, at least at this stage till they tighten up." The Family has had a history of declaring "liberty" only to take it away in some new tightening.

As long as the present leadership remain in charge of the Family, and the present idea that they can, should and must control other people's lives remains in effect, the present looseness can evaporate overnight. So much of their liberty is just smokes and mirrors.

Yes, I'm glad that at this point things are a little looser but we would be foolish to think that the Family is now a "safe" or desirable place to raise children.
