Jo has said that she cried & begged for her kids not to be sent out of the country, yet leaders (you among them) did NOTHING to stop it from happening. This happened on your watch. What more was Jo to do? You were the leaders, you had the power. She was separated from her children. Haven’t you read Achieck/Mercy’s story? Don’t you know that mothers stayed in YEARS to make sure they could get ALL their kids first before leaving?

What gets me that most is how shifty you are. In the past you tried to deflect blame away from yourself for sending Jo's children out of the country. Before you blamed your wife. SHE was the one who made the decision. She had the power. NOW YOU DON’T EVEN BLAME YOUR WIFE! YOUR STORY CHANGED! Now you tell Jo, *I know that you feel it was mine, or my wife's, or maybe somebody else's fault that your children were "sent out of the country." The reality is that it was your fault for not following them and doing something about it- like leave TFI.*

Tell me again Jim, WHOSE fault was it?
