Hello, Sidney. Thanks for providing a data point. My own sister wandered into the same crap, providing me with "recovered memories" that sent me back into therapy to test them. They simply did not happen.

She has gone on to do this with her children, sending them to one of these people to help them "recover" memories. They are now convinced that their father molested them both and are estranged from him and in pain. (Note that this occurred while she was having a professional conflict with her ex-husband and stealing his half of their joint business. Hmmm.)

Have you noticed that people do not "recover" a supportive memory that can help them deal with current conflicts?

Same thing happened to my youngest sister. She was convinced that my father molested her, and the rest of us, and we were just in denial. When I refused to accept her beliefs, she cut off all contact with me. That was a long time ago, she still refuses to have anything to do with me, our mother, our father, or our brother. The middle sister is more tactful than I, so they do still communicate. It's been too long to bother me much any more, since Ben was a baby, before Nick was born.
