Absolutely! And you're correct about posting anything that you want to post. I believe that the Dr. Phil blog is actually a place where parent FGAs could talk to their young adults without getting blasted like on Movingon.org. What I fancy the most is a real dialogue that may open up between the SGAs and FGAs that have LEFT the Family. It could start with FGAs validating the claims of the SGAs, and then...good things could happen. I am not convinced that the SGAs have "written off" all FGAs, we all know better, but parents have to sometimes fess up to why they made the choices that they made when they were young. Many of you chose TFI as your spiritual path- just like a Catholic might choose the Catholic Church- and then something happens that makes you leave that particular route. I see it sort of this way- your children are standing up publicly-and they need you to not fail them- they need you to stand up publicly side-by-side with them. Write Eva Saint John and ask her how she made it through such a difficult thing as this. She seems to be one of the strongest individuals that I'v gotten to know in the last few months.
