There is a lot more that can be said about growing up in the LC, but I don't want to get too far off topic. The problem with growing up in the LC is that everything related to the LC seems "normal" and everything on the outside seems "abnormal".
Thanks for your reply bro Freedom,

And I've seen plenty who have real problems upon leaving the LC and entering that "abnormal" outside world. Some have ended up in mental institutions, or treatment. Some have become alcoholics.

But then some have gone to non-harmful adjustments, like Buddhism and the like. Turns out Jesus and Buddha get along quite well.

Hay, one of my friends from as far back as 2nd grade, who was an elder in San Diego, now considers himself to be a Native American Indian Shaman.

People adjust to the abnormal outside of the LC world in all kinds of ways.

But from what I've seen children raised in the LC have serious problems adjusting to the outside world.

And those my heart most relate to.
