Interviews with Scientologist families from all around the world.
Interviews with Scientologist families from all around the world.

Parenting is an adventure, and as far as I’ve observed, no parent goes into parenting totally prepared for the challenges, and the utter joy they’re in for as a parent.   Any parent deserves to be as fully-armed as they can be with tools they can use to make the best of the challenges they’ll face as a parent, to the end of being able to raise happy, healthy children – and be happy, healthy parents at the end of it too!

The following are interviews with Scientologist parents from around the world, giving their views on how their beliefs have affected their experience as a parent and as a family member.

    1. Very good site to learn more about Scientology. Things explained so clear en bright. Very exciting to me. Thank you very much!
      Can this site be translated to Dutch? Or any language when asked?

      1. Hi Pedro – thanks, and glad you like the site. Definitely work hard to give a real, personal view of Scientology. With respect to the Dutch translation – if you’re viewing this on a desktop PC, there’s a “Translate This Page” menu in the right-hand sidebar which can translate any page of the site into whichever language you want, including Dutch. Let me know if that works for you. It’s Google Translate, so the translation may not be the best, but hopefully it still serves.
