“I was raised by parents who swore by focus on the family. They used physical punishment, dogmatic religious rules, and treated us as clay to manipulate, not human beings. If you are not already brainwashed by focus on the family RUN NOW.
My parents have seven children and every single one of us has severe anxiety from our abusive childhood caused by the teachings of FOF and other programs like it. We all have horrible relationships with our parents.
Children are not toys. They are not pawns. If you bring a child into this world, it is your responsibility to raise them into an independent, kind, and confident adult. Your child should be empowered to choose their own path in life.
If you have a “problem child” the problem is with you, not the child. Stop trying to control your children. Stop using religion to inflict generational pain and suffering.
Learn from my parents who will die alone with seven children they’ve ostracized.
Focus on the family is outdated, abusive, harmful, and will destroy your children. Run fast before it destroys your family too.”
