Wesley Thanks for your post and for continuing to reveal more about this group. I have a family member who is/was involved and that relationship has changed, for the worse, probably forever. I hope more people continue to share and shine the light on places like these who count on people not talking because of low self-esteem and/or shame. Sounds like an abuser to me.

Thank you Grateful for sharing your experience. I am so glad that you went with your gut and got out. I know there are more people out there who have had a similar experience or are going through it now. I hope more people will come out and share their experience so that others don't go down this path or at least the pain and harm is lessened. I think Grateful, whatever you can share woul

The above post concerns me (citygirls 6/17/09 @ 5:45pm) I don't think we should be promoting WI here. Although I am not interested in going back and forth about it - I'm just saying it doesn't sound right to me for this thread. I will just restate my experience. My family member, who I will call X, believes they were helped by WI. X has stated that they have left WI but ap

Is this the link you are referring to? I had trouble finding it so I thought I'd put the exact address so people can find it right away. I hope this doesn't violate any rules.

The men's basic is still happening. My family member is still involved. Unfortunately but not as involved as before. However they still have their hooks in him and probably will reel him back somehow. Because of citygirls' comments I am sure they are still up to the same old stuff. Maybe just a new machination. I want to state that citygirl did say some things that I hope haven�

Citygirl I was just speaking about what my family member, who knew this person had said to me. They would have had no reason to lie to me. The crux of what I was saying is that this form of therapy is not legitimate therapy. Show me one school that teaches this kind of therapy. I'm talking major universities and colleges. On another subject. Can anyone show me that these people are

I don't have direct experience with WI but a close family memeber was involved. My experience was that they were speaking from some kind of script. They seem to have their own language and if you don't understand then you just aren't enlightened or don't want to be. Until my family member left I could hardly have a rational conversation with them because everything was some

We attended one of the graduation ceremonies and at the end we were descended upon to sign up. We honestly, couldn't have gotten out of there fast enough. No one else in our family is involved in this group. The graduation ceremony they had was so weird because the words they use are english language but it's like they change the meaning of words so only they really know what they ar

I am totally new to posting to any form of blog so I hope I get it right. Last night I read everything I could about the wright people because I have a family member that is involved with them. Over the last few years the personality of this individual and their treatment of certain family members has changed. Conversations that were easy have become very difficult and convoluded using the w
