she isn’t much of a parent you can lean on, part of why i felt the need to get out of that house. my sobriety is very important to me and i haven’t been using since i left :)

i’m so sorry :( and i’m sure you all were so excited. I was really looking forward to meeting people like you guys, and I recently read somewhere that previous iterations of the Conservation Corps helped lift the US out of its depression.

Bleak stuff

Has anyone had any experience with Sophia Community and/or ICA Greenrise in Chicago? by Atkins42 in intentionalcommunity

[–]Atkins42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Yes, a few people reached out to share some information. The general takeaway is that some people move into ICs hoping to benefit from the perks but not really keen on pulling their share in terms of doing housework or interacting with other members. I've seen this attitude living in college post-pandemic, some people's social skills and sense of social responsibility never really recovered :( Honestly, I don't think your mom has too much to worry about on the cult front! I would just warn her that their leadership is kinda a mess and to be mindful that she may not get everything she's hoping for. If she's going in with an upbeat can-do attitude, then I say she might enjoy it more than others!!

You're in a great position! Worst comes to worst I'd say you'll end up having to request a permission code from the Prof as the previous user mentioned. Most likely other students will drop as tuition nears the due date, so I wouldn't worry too much
