Poppy, Richie is a man when it comes to making the hard decisions, gainful employment, etc, but he's also still a KID. It's scary and it hurts when your mom goes all whacko. I know. I've been there. My mom went kind of whacko when I was his age, and I can't even imagine how bad it would have been if I had tried to leave the Organization at the same time. And if his Dad is standing up for his mom, it's even scarier and more painful.
So maybe there are people with more desperate financial situations than Richie right now. But he still could use our support--even if he is capable of making it on his own without it.
Poppy, do you really mean to be that cold, uncompassionate, unkind and self-righteous?

by RichieRich inyesterday after school i had to go work on a project with friends.
mom said be home by 5, but there was a huge accident a mile from where i live, and i sat on the road for like 10 - 12 minutes, and was 5 minutes late getting home.
mom was there (didn't go to work- guess why) and she was pissed.

Yeah, they might take a different view of it when you tell them "Just go to church? Well, I told the church I don't believe exactly like they do, so now if I attend, nobody is allowed to talk or look at me, and I have to sit in the back row."

i can literally zoom in and look the contents of my apartment patio.
rotate the images and see your house from different angles by clicking on the compass.. you have three viewing options: road, aerial and bird's eye.

Shelley, with all of the stories like yours on this board, I'd be shocked if Beep believed you, after all you're a lying apostate. Right? *rolling eyes*
Beep, the immorality of "stealing" a book that is used to cover up the truth about the bowels of the Organization pales in comparison to the Intellectual Dishonesty you display to all of us here. -

You may not always do the good you think you are doing by mitigating the damage done by an overly-"righteous" judicial committee or elder body. I stayed in the Organization at least another 10 years due to the kindnesses of a few elders who I believe were trying to "change things from within." Had I been left to the abuses of the hard-liners, I likely would have wised up much sooner.
