What is a cult? Everyone seems to believe that parents that want to help their child - you know- be a parent - is somehow brainwashed into thinking a certain way.
I've read the posts on the mom who is selling her son's play station because he drank their "gift" champagne and other alcohol. I've read your judgments from struggling teens, the parents who are reaching out to each other in a time of crisis and helping each other. You seem to be angry at those that post on other boards that are not thinking like you. Do you want other's to share this view with you. Is that not one of the definitions of a cult?
Parents that intervened, chose an emotional growth program for their family are grateful to have others to reach out to, to stop doing what they've always been doing and learn new ways to be a parent and an individual - more in alignment with their personally defined values. Their kids are doing the same.
In reading your posts, are your personally defined values hate, blame, control, enablement, judgment, self-rightousness,cynicism or a sense of power? It's a question. :

Any time someone posts here that they came away with a better life, I see that many are telling them that it's only their imagination, that they were really abused and don't know it.
What is your payoff?
