"Polygamy is not as harmful as tabloids make us believe I did a documentary on polygamy and I visited this affluent family in Utah with three wives and 16 very happy, bright, socialised and interesting kids. Though I'm anti-religion, I admired the way they were bringing up the children within the family unit and I thought, they're making this work. We must stop this tabloid-level judgement of alternative groups of society. We need to look at the good and the bad and try to have a balanced argument."
She was referring to the family she interviewed in Centennial Park. I am a but disappointed that she didn't mention her interview with me or my family. Perhaps because we are not "affluent". But I was VERY pleased with her comments - her open-mindedness and positive outlook.
Thank you, Dawn O'Porter! You rock!

She makes a valid point that I doubt the USA based anti-polygamists can understand. They are a very narrowminded bunch.
