Or are you part of an anonymous squad who hits and runs under cloaks? It is not the family why so selah?
I am not pouring through the plentiful posts to find the exact words, but there was a post by another that listed ok people and people that were supposed to have personal issues with herself. Then Roger comments on levels of guilt saying Jo has less and maybe just maybe another FG has less too. It underscored the seeming default here. I don't want to re read every post. My referral to a "shit list" as most could know is not a literal list but a figurative one of who is guilty and to what degree. I know that I have been told I was probably not so guilty but what I am doing is looking at cult dynamics in general and trying to state something I believe to be more in perspective with the actual FG experience. At least from my own personal perspective and what I saw and have learned about it. I have written details about what I saw and where, but first hand I have no knowledge to back up criminal abuse that my testimony woud assist an SG court case with, probably because I left when my children and myself was still young and I was not in WS homes or in when some more serious stuff was institued OR I am not a first person witness. When it comes to personal guilt i am not the only one with th perspective I have. That is the issue I have and it is not a personal one with Jules but wit the blanket statements which indicate empathy is missing for those of us that "caused" SG suffering and suicides continue because of "us".
When I originally came to this site it was a good place of support for FG who had left the family. That does not mean people would not want to support SG efforts though as someone else posted further up I am not the only person with this sort of opinion.
Why is it all of you commenting remain so selah? Why don't you say who you are? For all I know you could be the same person, different name. Seems Roger is doing fine speaking for himself. Also seems to me that Farmer's posts are direct and well thought out. I think he makes a lot of sense and I have no trouble reading his English.
