Windy - you stated:  How about you tell the audience that your father is one of the only first generation members actively bringing attention to the atrocities committed in The Family?  

I just wanted to remind you that there have been quite a few that have been around long before and after your uncle that have tried long and hard to bring to the attention of the authorities and the public at large the truth about The Family International.  People such as Sam Ajemian,  Sword of the Lord Website, Miriam Williams who wrote a book, Ruth Gordon who wrote a book, Una McManus who wrote a book, Not for a Million Dollars, as well as bringing a lawsuit where she won a one million dollar judgment, Deborah Davis, David Berg's daughter, who wrote a book, and countless others who have established websites, written to authorities and done what they are able to do according to their abilities.  I take issue with you minimizing that and speaking as if your uncle is the lone hound on the heels of these perpetrators. 

I am sorry for the troubles your family is having. Let's hope that the therapy promised by Dr. Phil will truly make a difference.  We are survivors but we all have huge wounds and scars that need to be delt with.  Someone once said, if you don't deal with the pain, it will meet you later on.  Jim has his pain of losing his daughters and seeing what happened to them later, Kristi has her pain of what happened to her, you have your pain, and it all needs to be delt with accordingly. 

We should remind each other that we are all in this together. All the best to you and your family.
