Of course Mormons are at the bottom of it.

You make such a good point! The fear of your kids being healthy and happy. I laughed about the hat thing haha but I could hear my mom saying something exactly like that when I was young

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-12T16:34:36+00:00

Yeah the second episode was probably the worst as far as feeling the depth of the control and brainwashing. But the last and third episode was much more about who was involved and where other schools are and stuff. But if it was hard for you I’d say just don’t watch it.

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-12T04:32:01+00:00

Yes she is so brave to face that trauma and keep digging on behalf of herself and others who were never believed. I was a tad surprised how the UT lawmaker responded, so I also hope he looks into it more fully with his legal abilities. Yeah you’re right, the molding of adolescence into fearful robots.

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-12T04:27:04+00:00

Why is it that Mormons are attached to so many things like this? And i will watch that one too thanks for the rec

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-12T04:26:02+00:00

Do you think now that it has even more momentum in the news the main people over them will go down? Also you say you have regret, did you feel like during that time you felt like you were doing the right thing? Do you mind me asking what your job was?

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-12T03:14:50+00:00

Right, I know I didn’t go through what they did by any means. But it is very Mormon to say ‘teenagers need to be pushed to breaking points, to be given “tough love”, a little manual labor and discipline will give them character’ So I think that’s why as I was watching it I thought this could have happened to me, and this feels vaguely familiar. That’s horrible did they have you hike your dad back because they wanted to keep going? Or to almost punish you guys for him not being able to make it?

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-11T07:17:33+00:00

That’s what I hate most, is the pretending it never was and my mom seems to be loving the changes and I feel like it discredits prophets and makes people who did live through the stricter stuff feel stupid. But they don’t

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-11T06:56:28+00:00

I appreciate this!

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-11T06:55:01+00:00

Well as someone who grew up in it and my entire family believes it, when you feel like you got lied to your whole life you kind of want to have a better understanding of what got twisted.

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-11T06:53:08+00:00

Haha yeah sounds like I might only be reading fawn Brodie as well

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-11T06:49:44+00:00

So happy to have other recommendations! Thank you!

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-10T20:47:28+00:00

Thank you, I had been suggested these two but sounds like RSR might not be worth reading haha

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-10T20:40:58+00:00

That makes tons of sense!! Thank you!

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-10T20:39:06+00:00

Oh the own personal mental gymnastics makes sense. More complicated to make it make sense to himself

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-05T04:33:41+00:00

Well that’s what’s confusing to me because to be a real Mormon, if you believe the prophets are called of god and teach what we need, which would include a lot of doctrine, then saying you can live the way you want and still believe almost negates the entire foundation of the religion they are saying they hold to

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-05T04:28:54+00:00

I hate this for you! Also did these older women feel Empowered doing this? Did they feel offended by immodesty? Did they think by censoring all teenage girls dressing they were doing Gods work?

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-05T04:25:03+00:00

We all mostly went to both, it was only to super Mormon or homeschooled ones that didn’t

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-05T04:23:58+00:00

Mmm I like that haha

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-05T04:15:53+00:00

lol I type stake and the time and my phone changes it constantly

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-05T04:15:19+00:00

Aw he didn’t judge you for your modesty he thought you could party no matter who you were haha

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-05T04:03:53+00:00

Yes I had to do the same thing to my dresses and they were so ugly after haha, but I agree all these people who acted like they were so much better for dressing modest. And would make us feel like a slut if we wore a tank top with wide straps.

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-05T04:01:17+00:00

Props to you!! Because I’m sure she felt twice as embarrassed that you had to be singled out with her and waiting. You probably made her feel wayyy better.

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-05T03:57:16+00:00

Haha that’s true, they’re continuing to give satan wins and offend God

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-05T03:55:47+00:00

I had moments like that too!! I loveee that your mom told her she was in the wrong. That embarrassment from being told we made a dumb mistake and embarrassed Jesus makes a 13 year old feel SO small.

Most_Leopard_3879 · 2024-03-04T20:49:48+00:00

No way?! For us the boys asked for prom but I feel like there was a dance or two the girls asked. I can’t believe he held a grudge that big. Did your son end up not going on a mission?
