Indoctrination is a thing, and it is extremely damaging. Both while inside, and also once free. They (the parents) will build their (the child) lives around X people, doing X things, not Y things, and if you do Y things you’re no longer X.

I’m from Utah. The number of friends I’ve had who were ‘excommunicated’ from their friends, families and lives is huge.

I do agree with you for the most part, I just think it’s something to understand.
