Hi to all!
Yep. GUM WAS A BIG NO NO AT OUR HALL. AND ASSEMBLIES. People basically did what they wanted. Just chewed sparingly and kept their mouth shut.
This organization controls EVERY aspect of a person's life. Is their any area of a person's life that they don't have something to say about??
At our Hall, a brother was assigned to FOLLOW the kids when they went to get a drink of water or to the bathroom and if they were naughty he would take them to their parents. We told him to f*** off - we'll take care of our own kids.
