In this follow-up episode, we continue our analysis of Gothard’s “Why Do Children Rebel?” page from the IBLP Men’s Manual. While some of the parenting advice may initially seem helpful, Gothard’s wording twists reasonable ideas into rigid rules and reinforces a harmful pattern of blame. We’ll explore how even good relationship principles can become distorted when filtered through Gothard’s lens—and how this kind of teaching impacts families who are just trying to do their best.

Umbrella Rebellion is a podcast where we share our experience in the ATI/IBLP and fundamental cults. We are on a journey of healing and exposing the teachings that lead to and justify abuse. It is our hope that those who are experiencing abuse can find support and escape from it.
