Growing into what? And it takes a year to become a parrot?

Bro EvanG, I love ya, and you're either at a remote local church, not purveying from headquarters, or are pretending, or are more naive than I've always thought possible.

This parent is concerned and should be ... and you should show empathy for her ; unless to you, it's the LC party over humane Christian care.

I've seen what happens to kids that grow up in the local church. And it's not always pretty, to say the least.

Cults are never mentally healthy.
