My close family member has been a devout Mor-mon since age 12, the only one in her immediate family.
She's bright, kind, responsible, not one to do anything half way. Followed her dufus priesthood holder in everything. Raised an admirable number of fine TBM kids, missions, lots of grandkids, etc.
While everyone is gracious and congenial, there's a definite wedge.
Thinking about it now, I don't think it would be in her best interest to learn the truth, recognize the fraud, and leave the church which has been her foundation, her community, her friendship circle. I fear it would lead her to depression and dispair to see what she has sacrificed and for what.
Anyone else have similar dynamics and ambivalence in their families?
