Lacking sense of self in a cult

[@KatieCreek71]

I absolutely love your channel and videos. Your insight into the culture and teachings of polygamy, the AUB and Utah, etc., are the key to understanding the attitudes and actions of the Brown family. Other commentators lack the context and insight into what is being said or done. They (and me) view the words the Brown family use or the actions they take from a non-polygamy or even non LDS viewpoint. Therefore, the conclusions they draw are sometimes off base because we lack the cultural context. I am so glad you and Cory give us these valuable insights into what is being said and done by the Browns.

Awe, thank you 🙏🏻 We appreciate the support

Omg you’ve nailed their personalities and decision making skills - this is the stuff that the psychology channels are missing about their dual brain operational system! It takes a former AUB church member to recognize and explain it to the heathen audience members.

Thank you 🙏🏻

Thank you for explaining the context of this. It helps to understand Kody’s behavior. Your hard earned wisdom is priceless ❤

[@NotestoSelf444]

I appreciate that! Thank you 🙏🏻

[@anyapb8984]

I can see how Kody has been damaged by the high demand religion. Unfortunately if we were to offer him that insight and compassion he would weaponize it to deflect accountability. It’s sad all around. May he learn the can choose differently in the future and may all the family members find their own freedom and release.

[@NotestoSelf444]

I see your point & I can see that to be true too.

Oh my gosh! Never thought of it like this!

[@rickredmon6122]

This is an eye opening take on obedience of the cults.

[@barbaramay5048]

Do you think Rob'em and Kody threw Dayton out and kept the girls for a reason?

[@NotestoSelf444]

I don’t know if they threw him out. Maybe he wanted to be more independent.

[@barbaramay5048]

I think you said your 1st husband was 25yrs old... Isn't that old for taken a 1st wife, since Kody was only 21 or 22 when he married Meri

[@NotestoSelf444]

Yes it was. That’s another reason he was in a hurry to marry me
