How do I enforce proper boundaries with parents (is it even possible?) who know my opinions on the church but still boast about things like my brother being called to the bishopric and my dad setting him apart as a high priest and it was a very moving experience? The news made me sick to my stomach! Literally, for so many reasons. I haven't been sharing my recovery news or even receiving my official resignation letter from the church because I know it'd be upsetting to them and I see no point. But no matter how hard I've tried, they just won't respect my decision! I am the one who has rejected the "truth" and so my mom (who I'm pretty close to) keeps trying to bear testimony and even put me on the prayer roll to change my mind (and probably continues to renew my name to keep it one it). I'm seriously considering not talking to her (this will mean very little contact with the rest of my family) and letting my parents continue living a life of avoiding reality.
