This is what you have done. You've basically said, "We tried to do better and Dallas wasn't as bad as Houston, OKC, etc". The fact is that the whole thing was corrupted and unhealthy for kids.
Let me go straight to the crux of my concern.
Looking backwards do you believe that having your children in the LC environment was a good one for them?

Matt, as I read your post directed at Hope I have to give my response. being raised in the local church environment was ideal prior to 1986. Most of the teaching and instruction I recieved was Biblically based. I have no regrets how my parents raised me. I feel the Lord placed me exactly where I needed to be.
