As the mother of a 35 year old who has fallen down this terrible rabbit hole I couldn’t agree with you more. Who do we make this demand of? No one is listening and my beloved child has cut me off with no warning, no letter, nothing. After years of supporting and loving and trying to help him build a good life I have no access. Here I am only preaching to the choir, it’s a lovely choir, but you all can’t bring him back to me which is all I want. I don’t have energy, at 67, to radicalize, to try to change minds. I can’t even reach my own family on this issue.
