Ive provided some clarity with the [brackets]. The group members [parents] display an excessively zealous, unquestioning commitment to an individual [their child]. The group members [parents] are preoccupied with bringing in new members. The group members [parents] are preoccupied with making money. The leadership [child] induces guilt feelings in members [parents] in order to control them. Members [parents] subservience to the group [children] causes them to cut ties with family and friends, and to give up personal goals and activities that were of interest before joining the group. Members [parents] are expected to devote inordinate amounts of time to the group [children]. Members [parents] are encouraged or required to live [in the suburbs] and/or socialize [playdates] only with other group members [parents]. - Dad is Fat - Jim Gaffigan
