I realized all of this was a lie about 6 weeks ago. I'm totally done and in the process of extracting my family. DH agrees, but for him he needs to do an incremental slow fade. My 14-year-old has not believed for awhile and is done. She told her sister about polygamy and that JS married a girl her age even though "he was almost as old as Dad." She told him all about how he married other husband's wives, etc. She thought her sister was totally making it up to freak her out. I verified all of this was true. I was sort of surprised she didn't know, but then they don't teach that at church either. I've not been a big FHE or read the scriptures together type and just focused on the positive stuff previously. The good news is I think that did it for her. She hated going to church already and didn't have friends there, so I didn't think it would be tough. But, her sister is much smarter than me and has begun to feed her the truth. Because my husband wants to keep it quiet and fade out, I have not been really hitting her hard with this stuff. But, geez, I can't help it if her sister does right? LOL
