My family have just returned from the assembly and the comments about the drama were "it brought a tear to the eye" and how it "hit so close to home", the reason being that I have left the truth, or "faded away" and my younger brother is about to be disfellowshipped. My mum cried the whole way home in the car about what a bad parent she was. Sounds like a really encouraging experience, this drama. Designed to make those with non-practicing children feel like complete crap for being "bad parents" and to make their darling children feel, well, like the devil reincarnate. The only hope us devil children have is thus: sacrifice our own free-will, live hypocrictical lives in a farcical organisation, be completely unfulfilled and hey presto! we will all be happy again. Like the other post, this has made my blood boil. Born into any other "normal" family, my parents would be proud of me and my brother and of being great parents. The extreme representations, the emotional presentation and the absurd ideas are hallmarks of this organisation as a whole and equate to only one thing: brainwashing.

2009 Drama Synopsis and Comments
by jabberwock inthis year's drama was based on the parable of the prodigal son.
the theme was "your brother was dead and came to life".
as some have probably heard, it is a modern day story based on that parable, so there are no fancy costumes or fake beards.. .
