Beth Pensky, a 54-year-old single mother from New Jersey who now lives in Florida, never tells anyone that she\u2019s estranged from her only son and daughter.
\n\u201cI lie all the time,\u201d said Pensky, who told The Post her kids have rejected her because they\u2019re \u201cwoke\u201d and she is not. \u201cI can\u2019t tell anyone I don\u2019t have a relationship with them. I had so much shame about it. It looks awful for me and makes me feel terrible so I lie.\u201d
\nBut her attitude changed when she \u2014 and a number of other mothers \u2014 read a\u00a0Post story in November about Annabella Rockwell,\u00a0a graduate of Mt. Holyoke College who claimed she\u2019d been \u201ctotally indoctrinated\u201d into hard-left ideologies at the school and had to be deprogrammed.
\n\u201cI saw Annabella\u2019s story and my life turned upside down,\u201d Pensky said. \u201cI realized I wasn\u2019t alone and I saw what happened to her was similar to what I think happened to my kids. I never even considered trying to find a deprogrammer. I didn\u2019t know they existed. But I think it\u2019s too late for me and my kids. They won\u2019t even talk to me.\u201d
\nA Manhattan mother of five daughters told The Post she saw their indoctrination into gender and race ideologies start at Dalton, one of New York City\u2019s poshest private academies \u2014 and worsen when her girls went to colleges. Most of them went to Ivy League schools.
\nThe emotional stress is unbelievable,\u201d said the mother, who did not want to be publicly identified. \u201cI consider myself a Democrat and a liberal but it doesn\u2019t matter. I\u2019ve had fights with some of my girls just because I wouldn\u2019t get myself a Rainbow pride Starbucks cup. The cup itself became this huge battleground. Apparently it matters what cup you hold.\u201d
\nThe mother said two of her daughters have tried to estrange themselves from her because they\u2019re critical of what they see as her lack of political correctness and disinterest in gender and race ideology.,
\n\u201cWe actually\u00a0would\u00a0be estranged if it weren\u2019t for me not giving up,\u201d the mother told The Post. \u201cI keep coming back to the battlefield. I wanted a deprogrammer but didn\u2019t know where to get one so I try to do it myself.\u201d<\/p>\n
