anyone see sons of perdition, leaving the cult

[southeastastra]

last night? frightening stuff!

Yes I did , those poor children . How on earth they are managing any kind of "normal" life now is beyond me .

and that poor girl who had to leave her four children. she was only 24, awful.

I was pleased to see that the mum and other kids had run away by the end too .

And yes that 24yr old when she was drunk and in such a state , felt wrong to be watching her in such a raw mess but very powerful .

A very powerful documentary. Those boys were so brave and holding it together so well for the most part.

I was so pleased to see that last photo of Hillary (?) just looking like a normal teenager.

The idea that 'the prophet' could just decide to remove you from one husband and hand you over to another if he became displeased with your husband. And that your children and even your home suddenly became the property of another man.

And the way those women were all dressed!!

shocking, amazing to think this still goes on. boys were v v brave.

did i hear rightly that one of the men had 80 wives?

He was the prophet if I remember right . He would just tell the women that the lord had spoken to him and said they should be married . Glad he was in prison at the end but it has just made him a huge martyr .
