Manipulating Children Is Easy
09/22/19 • 23 min
I have no idea what I don't know. None of us do. Punishment for a child and adult are the same in Scientology. I explain one of the many methods used to control me, my sister and every member. How is this OK? Why is it done? One thing that has been proven is a child's brain growth follows a specific path as they get age. If you took a chunk of time out of a child's life (say age 5 until 25) and taught them they were not a child at all but that they were an adult in a small body, kicked them out of their family if they misbehaved, publicly shamed them into conforming, punished them for showing any resistance to the life they were being forced to live including sexual, physical and mental abuse...how would they turn out? This is how children are "raised" in Scientology.

A Terrible Decision
I was only 6 or 7 when the cult of Scientology took over my life. I explain how this happened to me, my little sister and my mom. I found a handwritten letter my mother wrote that helped fill in the blanks. We were a happy NORMAL family of 3. Single mom and two little girls. What happened that would convince my mother to make an awful decision that would end up tearing up our entire family tree and feeding it into a shredder NEVER to be put back together.

L. Ron Hubbard Became My Father
Over time I forgot my biological father and put my money (and soul) on the only male figure in my life that gave me guidance: L. Ron Hubbard. Wait, he was the only one I was allowed to follow for face the consequences.
My mother handed over the responsibility of being my parent to this man.
He influenced every decision I ever made. Even today I have a hard time processing situations. It takes me a while to mentally prepare before responding. I still worry about replying to adhere to a policy or make sure my response isn't going to upset people.
I share how this evolution occurred including personal details and specifics.
