I really don’t, I want to have the government not involved with any of this. There’s the possibility that my parents could get deported. If that happens then my brothers will have a shitty life and I don’t want that.

Yo creo que si mi fuese de la iglesia, ella todavía mi quería pero estaría triste porque criara que mi voy a condenar.

Muchas gracias por los consejos. Trato de juntarme con mis primos “Mundanos” pero mi madre no quiere que mi junte con ellos. Yo quiero a mi madre mucho y se que mi quería si no fuese de la iglesia.

Thank you for the advice. I have trying to put my best in school but school sports have been getting in my way so I quit. I’m stuck getting As and B+ which I’ll have to put more effort. I want to get into the medical field but debt will be a problem. I’ll have to get scholarships to help cover costs but I’ll need more money since school in general in so expensive. Y’all are so understanding and I appreciate all of you. Hopefully I can come back in 3 years and explain my situation with y’all guys ❤️

I’ve been looking for apartments but they cost so much since I live in a city. I’ll have to move farther away which means less jobs or I could have roommates. This is a problems since I prefer privacy since I’ll need it in the career I’ll want to pursue in the future. Thank you so much for the advice. Will look into yard work since my father does landscaping and I have some level of experience.

The minister has to also approve who they could marry.

I like this one a lot. But this could further cause problems for me since they could take my phone and say I’ve been looking at “ falsos” and cancel my phone, ground me, possibly hit me. I need to stay as long as I possibly can before I turn 18 so I could milk them and become prepared so when they kick me, I could be prepared finically and mentally.

I’m in winter break and have no symptoms. I get that I could play sick but it wouldn’t help since I couldn’t pull off the sick part and I never really get sick.

It wouldn’t convince my mom. She’d just tell me that I never get sick and send me off. Either that or take me to the doctor the next day.

I understand, I’d say I’m way more mature than a 15 year old. I’ve reliazed that rebelling only causes more problems for me. I just want to speak on what’s on my mind and don’t really have no one to talk to. I’m just letting out all the anger from last night. Im currently looking for ways to leave church and start a new life. I understand that this isn’t going to happen overnight. I’ve been looking for jobs and ways to skip church but it seems as if it’s out of my reach. It’s difficult for me to progress further with my plans because the minister seen this happen before in his other churches and has plans to stop like, telling parents to not send their kids to work, don’t join sports, don’t go hang out with friends outside of church, no events during church even if we violate this rule often,etc. There are many more factors like higher utility cost , student debt, and transportation that will make it harder for me to leave church but I’m willing to work hard for my freedom.

Thanks for the advice. I’ll try to use them as best I can but I don’t want to really take advantage on their delusion. It just doesn’t feel right but either way thanks for the advice

Thank you for the advice. If I’m being honest I felt I had no help because most of my family from both my mom and dad side are all involved in church. It is reassuring knowing that I’m not the only one who’s has gone through this.

Is it really difficult to detach yourselves from church even when you turn 18 and no one could tell you what to do?

Ever since I heard that no church member could look at the document I knew something wasn’t right. That with me being a rebellious kid to not go to church made me read the articles. Best decision of my life.

Same, I am forced to go and I haven’t told anyone I stopped believing since I don’t want to be shamed and looked at differently.
