I could never really understand why there were no special programs for kids. Why can't they do something to make it enjoyable for young ones. I know one family with 5 kids where the father ruled with a "theocratic" iron fist...you've never seen such a disconnected family. they seem to lack the natural affection that you would expect to see. One of the daughters loved school and was a very bright girl, at about age 12 or 13 her father insisted she begin home schooling so that she could also pioner. the girl wound up with anorexia and almost died. She was isolated from the family and the Docs said her problem was rooted in the way her father treated her. She went back to public school but has never been quite the same since.

Years ago we had a watchtower conductor who at the begining of the study would have little kids come on the platform with their own colored pictures that highlited something from the lesson. The little kids enjoyed going up there and showing their artwork, a lot of parents enjoyed it to. HOWEVER when the CO found out about it...guess what happened...? He stopped it. Back to the same old same old.
