My sister (her and hubby have been inactive for years) asked our TBM parents if they could move in temporarily while they get their finances straightened out. Parents said no, but offered to help subsidize their rent for awhile in exchange for helping parents around their house. It had only been a few weeks since the arrangement had been in place when TBM parents pulled sister aside (why are TBMs so good at accosting people?!) and said to her that they would rather her not come over to work off the money, but be required to attend church every week and bring her young children. She lives in a neighboring city, but they have ways of verifying whether or not she actually goes.
How can they be so disgusting and manipulative? She is an adult! The only thing I can think of is for her to fight fire with fire and tell them no access to the grandkids. They took advantage of her financial predicament by agreeing to help and then putting the requirement on her. She is not very inclined to stand up to them because a) she needs the help and b) she is terrified of our TBM mom. Any thoughts? Suggestions? Similar experiences? I hate this stupid cult and this has me all fired up. I would like to confront them myself.
