Is there a story behind this question?
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 ...
Define specifically what dysfunction you see in his actions here o this board.
Come on Wade, lets here it.

8 He shall be living on curds and honey by the time he learns to reject the bad and choose the good.

For before the child learns to reject the bad and choose the good, the land of those two kings whom you dread shall be deserted.

Teenagers who are 18 and 19 are still teenagers but they aren't minors.
I suppose that is true but it doesn't seem right to me. And they didn't specify that the teenager's being excommunicated were 'adults'.....although, I have a hard time seeing a kid that is 18 an adult. My 18 year. old still needs me to excuse her absences and tardies from school.

19 year old teenagers take out their endowments all the time. If they then do an excommunicatable offense, they are subject to the same punishment as any other adult. Same as with breaking a law. Even as young as 14 can be tried in adult court.

Had I said his actions here on this board were dysfunctional, then your request would make some sense. I didn't, and so it doesn't.
But, if you wish for me to point out where you may have been dysfunctional on this board, then your confused request above should suffice. ;-)

There were about ten Mormons at my school in about three or four different wards. One girl who was the year book editor got pregnant at about eighteen or nineteen after graduation. I just heard that she was giving the baby up for adoption. she was from another ward. I had already been excommunicated and was attending a local community college and institute. One day I saw the institute director approach. He asked her how her baptism went and she smiled and said it went well. She had never been on a mission and I'm almost one hundred percent sure she had not gone through the temple. Mercy cannot rob justice and these things will come back to the church.

I'm sorry, but I'm not following you. What are you trying to say?
