I interpret the combined activities as being church and school activities,
not boy girl parties at people's homes where movies and inappropiate games
will occur.
This is a major problem here (Utah), parents are letting their girls ages
12 on up go to boy girl parties, because they are "harmless" To me they
are just setting themselves up for a major problem. Because you and I know
that they WILL pair off! A couple of the mom's is already seeing the error
of her ways, but now her daughter has the leverage of "you let me go
before!".

I'm not sure what the directive from the church is, but we have Stake
Dances where the ages are 14 and up and our Youth Conference is ages 14
and up. Those are both boy/girl activities that are watched closely by
church members.

Tell her to talk to her daughter and let her know SHE did bad parenting and
made a mistake. That parents do make mistakes but they can chance that and
repent and start making better choices. Also, if she has pressure from
friends have her blame it on her parents, let them be tha bad guys.

Subject: Re: (lds-yw) Pioneer Skit -Reply -Reply
Shiela,
Sorry, but the person who put it together has sinced moved out of
the area. All I know is that it was about 5 minutes long ... I never saw,
only heard about it! But just quickly thinking about it - how about
taking an actual event like the pioneers crossing the Mississippi when
they were leaving Nauvoo (Is that the right river?). And the team of
oxen could make comments like ... "Are they serious? They want us to
cross that?" Maybe one in the back could be stubborn about it and say
"I'm not going - no way! ... Not me - I can't swim!". And have them
argue among themselves about it. Then they could be talking about
how they are going to do it as they are being led ... "hey, why don't we
just sit and slide down! ... once they get on the ice they can say stuff
like "what is this? Maybe it won't be so bad" ... then have them slip
and slid alittle with some "woooo's" and the oxen in the front can
complain about being pushed and the others saying that they can't
help it. Then finally one can be the leader and suggest they take little
baby steps together ... "ok, on the count of three ... left, right, left,
right ... not so fast! ... easy, easy, ... that's it, we've got it!". Have one
be the real complainer all the way through. Then when they get to the
other side he can be the one that says "I don't know what you guys
were so afraid of ... that was a breeze!" I think you can have some
real fun with this!!!! Good luck! Let me know how it goes.

Subject: Re: (lds-yw) What To Do?
In the YW Leadership Handbook on page 21 it addresses the issue of YW
who are pregnant. Briefly it states if the YW is 17 and planing on
keeping her baby she is to go to RS. If the YW is under 17 it is left
to the local Priesthood leaders and the Parents of the YW to make the
decision with a lot of prayer.
I understand it to be out of the hands of the YW Leaders, we just have
to make the decision they come to work.

Last year our stake had a speaker on LDS adoption services and the official
church bulletin about unwed mothers. If you haven't seen that bulletin, you
should ask your bishop for it. We taught our yw about the Church's position
and about adoption and about ultimately doing what the Spirit tells you is
the right thing to do, and it was a real wake up call for our girls.

Funny you should mention that. At the beginning of this whole discussion, I was
reminded of my student teaching experience in Orem, Utah. We used two liter pop
(soda) bottles to make green houses for tobacco. My supervising teacher was a
really terrific LDS man. Some of the students were opposed to the idea, but then
they were also opposed to homework, etc., and no one's parents complained, maybe
because of the scripture you mentioned. Can you imagine, though, "So, Bobby,
what did you learn in school today?" "We learned to grow our own tobacco."
(Actually, I think the teacher sent out disclaimers prior to the experiment.)

I love this skit idea. You are so creative, I wish you lived up here! The
first thought that came to my mind is when you mentioned baby steps, I
thought of "what about Bob" Have you seen that movie. Anyway, If you could
imitate that, I think it would be hilarious. (Maybe, only because my
husband and I love that movie.)

There is a video out now that should help the young woman that is =

Pregnant teens is a very emotional issue for me because we live in a =

these. I think she's right. We need to know what to do in these =
situations so we don't have all the horrible deaths of infants because =

youth, hopefully, they can teach their friends.
Just my two cents. I'm sure you all have decided I'm a little =
