Way to make parents feel like loosers if their kids delay baptism. Way to make kids "accountable" and shunnable. (is that a word?) Control, control, control. I wouldn't be surprised if a brother whose kids are not baptised by their teens would not be considered for appointment to MS or Elder.

And they take pride that they don't baptize babies. Seriously, what is the difference when you baptize kids like this. This sickens me.

Sure they are. But at certain ages they do not grasp the concepts that stick to not being able to undo something like baptism into a group you cannot just leave if you no longer agree with the principles.
I mean seriously, getting teenager married isn't something you are ready to endorse right?
Jesus was baptized at 30. Why are you in a rush when there is no indicator scripturally that you should be?
