I like watching this show. I dont agree with how the moms and dad's live, but I think it is awesome how they are helping people out from what I call a cult.

loved the show! keep up the good work! I remember the raid and seeing all the young kids there & never understood why they sent all you kids back to live in that hell! I've always wondered what happened to those kids? Since the authorities pretend it doesnt & wont do anything to help; Im glad some of you are strong enough to get not just yourselves out, but others whom want out too! The work you all are doing is the way all us humans are suppose to treat one another. Keep it up the good work, you are all on the right path. Since yall are related anyway you've created your new family. Can't wait for season 2
