Split families, where some members are Scientologists and others are not, usually are ripped apart at the seams by the cult’s disconnection policy. If you are in the least critical of L. Ron Hubbard and his followers you will be given the choise between their way or the highway. parents lose their children, brothers lose sisters, spouses get divorced and so on. Things don’t get any better either if you are raised in Scientology. If your parents are public members you life will revolve around that fact, most of the family income will be taken for auditing and donations. But it can be worse, a lot worse. If your parents are members of the Sea Org there is no possibility at getting anything like a normal childhood. They will spend very little time with you and when they do they are often too tired to do anything. Being the offspring of fanatics is no fun. Plan of living conditions well below the poverty line and long hours of work. Scientology as a “religion” considers itself exempt from labor laws.
