Someone read those books thoroughly and decided they are not worth the cost of staying in a damaging situation.

You have not read them and yet you to want to defend stories you don’t think are true, but might have some little pearls of conventional wisdom? And just gloss right over that the religious trauma caused them serious harm they are still recovering from?

Just pointing out that your luke warm defense of your favorite children’s stories in this context comes across as extremely tone deaf.
