Should those who excommunicate teenagers be exterminated?

or those that condone the excommunication of teenagers.

Exterminated is harsh. Public shaming and abuse maybe.

Step 1: convince a child that you are the authority on all matters

step 2: give impossible goals of personal behavior

Step 3: Enforce said rules via jackbooted institutionalized shunning and group separation techniques.

Don't let them convince you that they are the authority of you and one can walk away from the abuse of Mormonism.

just twenty five years of believing I was not a good person because I didn't live the standard - a standard that Joseph Smith never lived. Twenty five years of paranoia, depression ,anxiety and now finally anger.

I see that you CHOOSE disfunctional emotional reactions to that life challenge. The good news is, you can, even now, make a functional CHOISE. ;-)

Thanks, -Wade Englund-

Don't quit your day job, if you have one currently, Wade.
