And it not being socially acceptable to talk about your own childhood is super alienating. Sometimes people want to know why, and any answer you can give them is going to be off putting.

One of them said something like, "it doesn't bother me that [Friend] was in residential mental health treatment, I just wish they wouldn't talk about it ALL the time".

The other replied, "Well, that was all of last year for them. So when they say 'when I was in treatment,' it's like when you say 'last year'."

He wanted love, that’s all this boy wanted, and he thought that was promised when coming into this ‘Family’. But no, you know what happened? Instead of the blue robes the rest were given, he was handed brown, patched together rags because he wasn’t born into the Family.

Now that obviously had to come with a bit of a stigma. Being an outsider, one that is trying to repent and be a child of the Spawn, yes, but an outsider nonetheless. We aren’t even sure if there were more outsiders in the cult.
