Thank you. Happy holidays to you, Christie and the boys. And everyone reading this.

Skyler thank you! I am just coming back from a Italian family meeting and launch/dinner. Everybody is doing fine. So I wish for you.
Merry Christmas, Buon Natale and Bon Noel mon ami!

Thanks Dave. LOL.

Happy holidays to you and Sindy!

Fabulous. Welcome Bryon

Newcomer, As I see it, the best thing you can do for your SO kids is to let them know they’re still loved and welcome at your/their home when they’re ready. Don’t even mention scn as ANY mention of anything scn-related might be interpreted as a slight against the organization, intended or not. They are their own people now, even if they’re in a bubble of unreality, an alternate universe to the real world.

Ms. Ann, you’re so slim, I’d be afraid to give you a big hug back, so we gotta make do with virtual ones:
(((HUGS)))🥰🥰

One of the great things about this site is that it’s not so much about griping about the organization’s past actions, but the future and how much we cherish being free. life is SO much better.

Wonderful sentiments, Balletlady.

I might add: Don’t wait for a random date on the calendar to remind your loved ones that they are well and truly loved. Not for what they do, but for being what they ARE. All too often, we find ourselves wishing we had.

Reminding them every day would not be too often. IMO.

Thank you for this Cooper. I am thrilled for you and and your lovely wife and your “new” life with her. Isn’t it amazing how life has changed so much for the better since we got out.

I am very happy I got to meet you when it was all falling apart (it helped to have a comrade during that difficult time) and now to call you friend when the dust has settled. My best wishes to you always.
