@Shine must Shine said:

"We had opportunities to travel abroad, start a new life, change our story. But the church told my parents, “God has a purpose for you here… if you leave, you’re stepping out of His will. We stayed. They collected the funds my parents had saved for our future — ‘for church expansion’. My parents gave willingly, thinking they were serving God, but I knew at least 5 of those same pastors whose children were living comfortably abroad, studying and working, while they preached to us and brainwashed my parents."
