Think about it...in what area of life does ANYONE do what they do...?
I'm talking meddling in your "personal" matters, inviting you to the "backroom" (wtf?), discussing how you've "stumbled" someone, tell you you're not doing enough, dictate your clothes, your speech, want to know "why" you weren't at the meeting or FS, need to know the "intimacies" of marriage...to keep the congo clean..., label everyone either "weak" or "a pillar", want to know if you "beat your meat"...(but beating your kids is OK)..., have you been having impure thoughts, help you choose a "spiritual" (ugly) mate, why you bought a (gasp) 2-door car, whether you attended the meetings while on "vacation", turned down that scholarship to "pioneer"...actually got us to sell everything and move to Timbuktu AND STAY....
Gawd we actually put up with this crap?
If ANYONE else (cept the Dubby's) was even remotely this "controlling", they'd be shot.
