can you really imagine that a young teenager in a room full of stern grown-ups is going to say "i've had enough of this and i am walking out."?
i really hope it will go to trial.

"Watchtower could easily solve this apparent dilemma if they announced a policy of dealing with sin internally but reporting all reports or suspicions of crime to the secular authorities to be dealt with according to the law".
I think they've already done that.

"Yes, but the risk is extremely low. We can't live our lives in bubble-wrap, afraid that we'll trip and die. The risk has to be compared to other risks."
True. But I noticed you didn't mention the possible organ damage. If that is a real risk for those who have had covid, then I would say that is something to seriously consider as well.
the court of justice of the european union (cjeu) yesterday delivered the judgment (press release) on a request of the supreme court of latvia on whether domestic authorities are obliged to reimburse costs of cross-border medical treatment when the patient's decision to perform it in another european country was based on religious, not medical, grounds.
the opinion of advocate general (summarized here) is helpful in understanding the case.. the son of the applicant in the main proceedings had to have open heart surgery.
that operation was available in the latter’s member state of affiliation, latvia, but could not be carried out without a blood transfusion.
360 degree turn? That would be back where they started. I think you meant 180 degree turn....

There have been cases where utterly healthy people in their 30's and 40's developed complications because of covid and died. There is no quarantee that if you are young and healthy covid won't kill you. So it IS a risk even for those in that category.
On top of that, those who have survived covid, may experience long lasting damage to their organs later. Not enough is known yet, but that is what I have been reading in the medical journals. So that is a risk too.

whats your secret" ?
Hmmm...good question. I suppose it's because I am convinced about a few fundamental things, and the rest, like I said, I am just realistic about. No surprises, seen it, been there, done that.
"a real live PIMI" makes me feel like some exotic creature. There are more of us out there.....

I think I'm just being realistic, and I hope, fair.

You might need to re-read spme of what I said.
In any case, to answer your question, this is not about shunning underage children. As you say, parents are responsible to bring their children up. So if a child is disfellowshipped, or the parent of an underage child is disfellowshipped, that does not interfere with normal familial relationship. The parents are still responsible to provide and take care of the child. (The same goes for the husband and wife, if one of them is disfellowshipped they are still husband and wife and act accordingly). But when the child is of legal age, and moves out, then the shunning may begin because the parents are no longer responsible for the young adult.
