Manipulation is huge in the LC. For years my brother and I were told that our mom had deserted us. Here my step mother was and had been intercepting her letters for years.

From phone calls that were listened to, and mail that had to be sorted and reviewed before we got to see it, to trying to keep us in the dark about other cultures.

I was glad that I had a strong will. I knew I needed to leave. From having saints living in our home all the time (once they asked me to return a sex book to the library! I was 14) to watching these young Taiwanese women being married to American men. Neither speaking the others language.

I was mortified that I was going to have to get married to some uber religious guy and move to Taiwan!

I know that some of the kids that I went with are still in the church today, but I hope most got out like I did.
