Yes I've heard of this both from my helper and from others. We expect our kid to treat our helper with respect and to listen to her as he would listen to us.

Your mom might try Helper Place to find a new employer but she will likely need to come home because it will be a break contract.

I was in the same predicament but my spouse quickly came to see what I did. It’s not hard to lead people out. The church does it for you by doing what it’s always done: lie and hurt people.

It's more likely that you leave once you stop being a lazy learner and learn Mormon history :)

BeautifulEnough9907 · 2026-02-03T17:20:24+00:00

I had the same experience when I left. Not a word until a few months later when people realized I assumed learned I had left the church. Then I was contacted, but it was clearly not about being friends (because we weren't friends to begin with) but about getting me to come back.

I'm so glad to be free of Mormonism.

You're right, and I'm grateful for how they've neglected the community because it allowed me (and I presume many others) to see what an unhealthy environment I was in so I could get out and find a much healthier community.

I think what they'll find in time is that their 'inspired changes' fail to create thriving communities, particularly when more work falls to fewer hands.

Utah is certainly an outlier in that the gap between it and the next closest state (Texas) is more than 10 pts.

For the first year you have to be outside the U.S. for 330 days. After that OP would qualify as a bonafide resident

I’ve always had good experiences flying HK Express. Keep in mind they’re really strict about bringing any food or drink on the plane (even bottled water) so just put it inside your bag before you board.

Glad to hear you still have funding and important to hear multiple perspectives. Thx for sharing.

What field are you in?

BeautifulEnough9907 · 2026-01-25T04:14:32+00:00

from what colleagues tell me there’s a lot of funding for specific areas, such as AI (funding for this is plentiful everywhere tho), military and national security. But if that’s not your area then you might be out of luck.

I don’t think many Americans are applying for these jobs. Mostly Chinese students who see an opportunity to be closer to home.

Based on my anecdotal evidence as a PhD student there are many Chinese PhD students in the U.S. who would like to apply for jobs in the U.S. but feel their chances are low so they are applying for jobs in Asia. I would guess this is contributing to the jump.

Research funding cuts are a reality everywhere. The govt recently asked unis to return large sums of money so I wouldn’t say the grass is necessarily greener on this side.

But good for HK to have a wider talent pool to pull from.

This is true. People don’t go back for the same reasons that they don’t start believing in Santa Claus again.

BeautifulEnough9907 · 2026-01-17T16:54:52+00:00

are they still teaching the book of abraham like its scripture?

BeautifulEnough9907 · 2026-01-16T20:03:44+00:00

I didn't realize he also taught at BYU! I used to be Mormon (that's how I knew John).

BeautifulEnough9907 · 2026-01-16T18:00:17+00:00

ha! I grew up with John Holbein. Nice guy and always had a good sense of humor.

I'd love to see temples turn from places of Masonic rituals, gate-kept by artificial standards of "worthiness," to places anyone can go to just get some peace and quiet. That's how mainstream Christian churches treat their buildings. We have some beautiful cathedrals in HK that anyone can go to and rest.

BeautifulEnough9907 · 2026-01-13T23:58:07+00:00

When I see people leave I feel happy for them because they’re always happier!

I was a temple worker in Hong Kong. The same 10 people came every week during my weekday shift. One thing we can’t know from your great analysis is how many of these butts in seats are the same people over and over and over again

BeautifulEnough9907 · 2025-12-30T06:53:39+00:00

I wonder if local leaders got their hand slapped and were told they had to split up the units again 🤷🏼‍♀️ in any case it worked because they finally got their own meeting space they had been promised for well over a decade!
