Yes, to the questions about attending services. All LDS churchhouses have a "visitors welcome" sign and anyone of any faith (or not) can attend, anytime.
I feel in MOO Chad and Lori are in a mind set with their new life and up(in their minds) mission.What happened in the past was neassary to reach their goal but it is done and finished.
Families are now out of sight out of mind.
It is just them.
They are enjoying the attention.
Sadly from my experience and other kids on welfare, having a parents who dumps you in a home and walks away starting a new life with a new family. My sibling was contacted my former parent years later(early 90's) to see how they, myself and siblings did after we had been placed in home it was weird.
Even weirder was the parent years later had tracked one of my siblings down by using a Church Group," how sibling left home at sixteen after a disagreement with her etc..... once sibling that found out they were not very happy.
Parent has no intentions of let sibling met the extended family who were unaware of former marriage or children but just to tell us since that parent found out we had done so well in our lives without them, how selfish we were not to contact them, we were so rude so disloyal. Our lives choices marriage, children, careers and lifestyle we could have done better they were disappointed in us.
I found out in Welfare File our Parent had Anti Social Disorder.
I feel IMO Lori demands loyalty and control, once she feels you have broke that loyalty she does not just discard but has shown she will make your life so bad even take lives...
In my opinon could Lori have Anti Social Disorder?
I feel for JJ and his sister where has she dumped them? Due to JJ love for his Daddy, Lori see this as disloyalty. CV Death was still an open case not closed) Tylee failing to convince the police, it is aother another disloyalty in her eyes.
Never her fault always others.
ASD can make up stories and believe them and convince other people very well.
Thank you loganlocal sorry I left this last but you have answered an confirmed a personal family history question for me one which is over decades old. My parents broke up when I was young(Long Story) one parent took us without family courts arrangement(We lived under many names) before we were put into Welfare Care in 1975. When I moved to city in the 1990's I was stunned I knew the city, I walked to a suburb into a street where the local LDS Church house.
I knew the building I knew the inside as I remember being there visiting often when young cannot remember year. Our Parent was recieved into the church, found a letter which had parent name and our name but not year. My friends and family said that there was no way as LDS were closed off from the public. Parent claimed they came a member of LDS in the 80's.
Cut story short year ago I got my Welfare records found in the home records where we were dumped in it was stated myself and siblings were members of LDS although our school and home address was false (No surprise there) as we had moved interstate before placed in Children's home.
Loganlocal, if I contacted the local Church house which my siblings and I attended years ago, would they be able to help us with family history. It would just filling in missing gaps, what year we attended,address we lived/suburb which we can find our school records when we left.
People told me LDS would refuse to help us being a non members . Parent died ten years a member of a different church. Sorry to bring this up on the thread everyone but after what Loganlocal told us I had to jump at the chance.
Loganlocal does the LDS have there own Welfare services, could JJ and Tylee been placed in one care place as they could have been informed the Children were in danger of other family members?
Hope these children are found soon and safe, it breaks my heart, them thinking they are alone and no one wants or care for them.
No children should feel that.
