In the late 1970s, the Weatherman group split into two factions &mdash; the "May 19 Coalition" and the "Prairie Fire Collective" &mdash; with Dohrn and Ayers in the latter. The Prairie Fire Collective favored coming out of hiding, with members facing the criminal charges against them, while the May 19 Coalition continued in hiding. A decisive factor in Dohrn's coming out of hiding were her concerns about her children.<ref name=lfnyt112281/>
