More common than a lot of Duggar/ATI supporters...

are willing to admit. I am not the worlds biggest fan of RG but I think they are finally starting to get to the very real evil that the ATIA way of life allows to flourish.

 

I have known other Xers who's stories read just as this one does. Molestation and incest was/is incredibly common in ATIA circles. I know of one woman who was repeatedly raped and abused. She appealed directly to Gothard for help to make it stop and he told her to go home to her abuser because the abuser was a godly man.

 

This is what the Duggars are fronting for by supporting ATIA and Bill Gothard. Every time they promote some part of Gothards teachings, they are setting families up for horrendous failure. Shame on them.

eta: The link does take you to content that might be triggering for sexual abuse survivors.

I so glad sh was able to eventually get help. What a living hell.

ATI can't fall apart fast enough.

      Guess I should update again? Frieda (Kiki, we renamed her) is here since the end of February 2021. She came with a bunch of problems, but is the best dog ever and is doing better every day. But we do now know how a dog with ptsd looks like. For real, not joking. If she is triggered during the day, she wakes up screaming at night. Not like dogs dream, but literally screaming. Other than that she went with us on countless trips, loves hiking and even cable cars. She is one heck of a fearless dog in situations who do not remind her of her old life. 
      My Grandpa passed away last May and I'm still grieving a lot. After sharing a house with my grandparents for over 30 years it is just horrible to lose one of them. Even though it was his decision and he got to go like he wanted. At home, in his bed during the night without doctors. He would have need more care and he did not want more care. So after turning 90 he decided to let go and became weaker and weaker. 
      In other news my dad stops working for good on April 1st. Retirement time. Keep my Mum and myself in your prayers. We really do not want him at home all the time. Haha!

      I don't always make good decisions for myself due to severe depression but I did today actively decide not to do something that might have been detrimental for me and am very proud of myself.

      Well, this is weird. At some point, recently, I broke my wrist. I had to get a Dexa-scan today (put it off for years) and along with some bone loss, damn I had it a few minutes ago… the results said, “Fracture risk is moderate, and the patient has a significant wrist fracture. Treatment is advised.”  my left wrist aches a little but not near as much as my back, feet, knees or fingers, damn RA. I have no idea how it happened. I haven’t fallen in 2 years, haven’t banged or bumped…  the dr will call tomorrow and we’ll get  this straightened out.
