Do I win the prize for being the youngest to have to meet with the elders - I was 10 and my mum found a rude poem in my lunch box and dutifully dobbed me in. I was removed from school for the next 3 years shortly after.
Next meeting with elders was when I was 14 for running away from home..can you blame me!

No you don't. I went in 4th grade. It was for lying (I believe)...
Richie - you always have to outdo me. Whatever happened to your spirit of humility young man?! Not to mention respect for your elders!get yourself in that backroom boy!
Way too many times.
It hurts just to think about it.
Oh yeah, volunteer idiot here ... excuse me brother, I need to talk to you . They didn't decide to kick me out until I stopped volunteering to be humiliated by them. Oh well .... yippeee for meeeeee I'm finally feeeeeee!
I'm in some kind-a mood today.
Me too. Several times. My elders would do thinks a bit more covert at times, just "meeting" with you in the lobby or the donut shop in FS. They wouldn't tell you it's a JC but it was. I had only 1 meeting in the back room with note taking that I recall.
I had to meet with the elders after being raped at 17. They needed to hear all the graphics details so they could decide whether it was rape or fornication...
you know liquidsky I've read how many times they changed their mind on that. It's simple Rape is Rape - nothing about consenting!!!!! at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It sickend me.
I had three such meetings: for buying and reading pornographic magazines, and then twice for saying things about the org they didn't quite like, and after the third meeting I gave in my letter of departure.
BTW Minimus how did you protect your woolen cloths? everytime I got some they would get damaged by insects which made holes in them so I gave up buying them.
Some use naphthaline but I hate the way it smells and it also reminds me of very old people. Can't go around with cloths smelling like that.
