He axed me about what the deal was with boys turning 12 and the significance of that.
I told him about receiving the Aaronic Priesthood and then passing the sacrament.
He said that he gets Mormon kids who occasionally talk about that as if they don't want to do it or be a part of it. So we kind of talked about why that might be.
Among other things, I thought it was important for him to know about worthiness interviews and the Morg's stance on little boys touching themselves.
He was horrified to learn about the bishop's interview process as well as the no dinging the dong policy. He said, you know 98% of males do, and the 2% who don't usually have serious issues that need to be addressed.
I told him that those 2% become the leaders of the Mormon church, and that's why it's so messed up.
He was glad to know about that because it will help him as he deals with Mormon teenagers.
