I would just like to say something, if I may.

I do not believe either I or the others were saying that Rh's h needed to say that he wanted to come back. Not at all.

I just felt that his comment that Rh should be nothing but grateful that he returned and that she should have no issues sounded a bit disrespectful.

I know that they are in crisis and need to be shown compassion kindness and patience. And Rh has certainly shown an abundance of that. But, the LBS suffers deeply, too. They need compassion and kindness, also.

MLC does not give them a free pass on their actions, crisis or not. They still have to own them.

They also have to show respect to those LBSers who have stood, who have endured a great deal of pain, and welcomed them home.

You cannot have a relationship, without respect and honesty. Certainly not for the long haul.
