Why do they continue to create situations where children can be put in danger?
They claimed at the ARC that they
'do not sponsor or operate ...or any other activities which seperate children from their parents'
The July newsletter states
'The Governing body is pleased to inform you that exemplary, unbaptized male publishers may also be used to care for some congregation tasks that are appropriate for their age and circumstances. For example, and exemplary male publisher in his early teens or younger may be used to handle microphones and operate the sound and video equipment if permission has been granted by his parent or guardian.'
Young teenagers and those younger than 13 are going to require a bit of training in those tasks and they obviously don't expect the parents to that training. There is no suggestion that parents be present during it either.
This newsletter is a keeper for court cases/enquiries where the Watchtower claim their are no activities which draw youngster away from parents.
Damn them for not leaving things for mature sisters to do or were they already having problems with fresh brothers instructing females to do or supervise them in these jobs?

Are they really so desperate for suitable people to operate audio equipment that it's become necessary for 12-year-olds to do it?? I suppose that's a better alternative to... gasp... a... woman doing it. 😲

in his early teens or younger
Yeah, that is just what I would want IF meetings were something I still went to and commenting were something I did, some bratty 10-12 year old little boy stuffing a microphone in my face!

Sisters would have to wear hats if they had responsibility like mics. Can you imagin a sister with a cowboy hat handling the mics.
