What I was curious about is this: Are there any people who still remain faithful to the cult, I mean "program", who don't care that kids is no longer in operation but still practice the whole damn thing and meet and etc.,....I swear I saw T*ny K*z*c*w*cz working in the Eddie Bauer in Paramus last year and he had that "look" in his eyes. You know, that "my brain is not my own" look of the program? I was wondering, are there people who are still in? And if so, who are they?
-
I`ve heard there are people who get together still,but not sure of names What a sad life ! :mad:
-
I agree, very sad life indeed. I am so curious though. There are people who I think about sometimes that I am sure must still be connected. I just can't picture them living normal lives.
-
I say we find these people and restrain them on the floor, wherever they are, until they come back from the dark side.
-
That is very kind of you to want to bring them back from the dark side, but think about this...At this point in life, they are old enough and far enough away from it all to make the jump themselves. Maybe I'm not being fair, maybe I'm underestimating the power of the brainwashing...but I think that if they decide to stay sickly connected then that's the decision they've made themselves. If any of them are the ones who've hurt us, then thier punishment is still living the non-free life. God I hope I'm not becoming cruel.

Wow, 5 years. I thought my 2 year stay long. I'm glad you broke free, not just from the place but from the mind set.

I don?t understand the revulsion for the people still involved in the program. How are they hurtful to you now? Why should you even spend your time in thought on this? Perhaps they are better off in life where they are than anywhere else. We are not all the same you know. And we do not all learn or change at the same rate. I can understand it seems strange that there continues to be devotees of that place, but some of you seem downright hostile.
Like I have said before, the truth is the truth, no matter if a liar speaks it to you.
Try to be compassionate. There is nothing virtuous in what is being said here. Why be hurtful to your fellow man with such criticisms? ?Thus, to cultivate patience without anger or resentment toward anyone at all . . .? (verse 27, practices of the Bodhisattva).

The only revulsion in the prior post is directed at Newton. The feeling of loss and even anger towards a family lost to Newton's malevolence is understandable. It took courage to insert that post. It is easy to talk about compassion- You can't make yourself feel it. All of Newton's methods could not control feelings of loss- They could only suppress them.

Kristi moved down to Florida to be closer to Fig Newton and the Mosses and to get away from her evil ex husband (Joel) who left the graduates. He's sinfully sober without them.

Larry, what ever happened in the custody with Claudia? She is full time with Mom in Fl?

I am just curious how anyone knows for certain that the aforementioned names are still involved with the post-program or still practicing the dreaded "tools of personal change" (sounds like some old form of voodoo or something...well, I guess it WAS!).
The idea that there are still micro-programs in existance has been an urban legend since NJ closed and I would be totally interested if anyone has any thing factual regarding the current KIDS affiliation with former staff, grads, and even former phasers.
-
fartoo...why the defense??
Do you favor the Newt-er?
-
Why do you need proof of the micro-groups being real or urban legend? Is this Miller, or Ruthie? Now, Now. Don't worry. It doesn't matter what we know or don't know Millie Dear, you have our blessing to meet as you see fit. We'll just go on with our little paranoid musings and live free while you keep the doggies' in the corral, so to speak.
-
I know the doubts weren't posted by those who still follow Newt, because they're probably not allowed to use the interent. After all, Computers are a "gateway" drug...right?
Get it, Gateway Drug?
Ok, I'll go sit in the corner and think about what I've typed. No more humor, I promise.

Curious to know ,if Joel did leave what was left of that place... does he now go to AA or what ? Good for him and glad to hear if he did get out of that.He was there for soooo long. I love to hear when people come to reality. But he will need some serious conceling after being there for so long.I sure did when I got out and I was not involved as long as he was. Does he still run the Dry cleaners in Wychoff ???
Well Joel if you did get out , Best of luck to you !

Let bygones be bygones, and to each his own!I dont resent the "Program" and any who were ever involved or who are involoved still!At the same time i can say i dont condone the type of treatment that we all recieved.As for myself i am very thankful that i was able to get clean and remain clean, for without it , I would be nothing!And have nothing!I dont remain in the past and i do not dwell on all the shit that happened to me in KIDS of BC, its been fifteen years and i have a somewhat normal life to live, a wife and two, soon to be three little boys to raise to the best of my ability.Yes I, like the rest of us have my struggles and I will always be the first to say that i am very very far from perfect!I will never be perfect, far from it!But hey thats life, to live a life without struggles?Well i know for myself that I would be without Wisdom!And i need all the Wisdom i can get my hands on to help my children from making the same mistakes that I have made.Love Ya Group! Always, DTC

To be truthful, I might get some people pissed off, I had no beef with Joel. I wish him all the best... I hope he is out of the grasp of NEWTON.. In the Program he treated me like shit but at times I knew he wanted to be my friend. I had him laughing at the time which was considered "druggie shit" He would joke back and would act like a friend. In my time of 1991-1994 graduates of the program did not talk to people on first thru 5th phase. But I remeber his wedding day and he went out of his way to talk to me as a 4th phaser and looked quilty for the way he treated me. All I'm saying is we have all changed for better or worse... Let the man live in peace... If joel or any one who remebers me from the program wants to leave things in the past let me no....lenzim48@msn.com

I didn't see anyone say anything bad about Joel so I am unclear why you are so defensive. I also say bad things about Miller
-
meant I only saw bad things about Miller

IN REGARDS TO JOEL WELL I LIKED JOEL AND I ADMIRED HIM BECAUSE HE DID HIS OWN THING AND HIS MESSAGE DIDNT COME FROM MILLER IT CAME FROM HIS OWN EXPIERENCE. I DO HAVE A FOND MEMORY OF ME SHARING MY PAST WITH HIM IN HIS VAN I MEAN I HAD A ROTTEN PAST BUT CRUELITY AND BRAINWASHING I DIDNT NEED I NEEDED A FRIEND. JOEL IF YOU ARE READING THIS I HOPE YOU ARE DOING WELL AND I HOPE YOU ENJOY CLAUDIA BECAUSE SHE IS A MIRACLE
