I think this is why so many of us stay for so long. We want things to change, we want things to get better. For someone like me who has grow up in the LC, it's all we know.
I have questioned things in the LC for a long time. I know there are many others my age who I'm sure have done the same. Whenever anyone struggles in the LC, whether it be due to legalism imposed, or just certain practices, the blame is always put on us as individuals for some superficial reason, never on those who are truly responsible. The problem is that instead of questioning things like we should, people like myself tend to assume the shortcomings of the LC are due to personal shortcomings such as incorrectly implementing something that Lee said.
