I left TSCC 10 years ago after finding out about the pedophile prophet - even Joseph Smith. My husband and kids left too. It has been very difficult for my TBM parents.
Yesterday I was speaking to my mother, who is a temple worker, RM, former RS president, etc. You get the pic. I have a 7 year old daughter. I had the following conversation with my very retired mother, who rarely spends any time with her grand-daughter because she is always involved with church activities:
Mom: I can't spend time with my grand-daughter because you won't let her come to church on Sunday. She would have so much fun. There are other children her age. She would learn about Jesus, good values, and just have a wonderful time.
Me: Uh, I don't understand what you are saying. There are 7 days in the week. Mormon church is on Sunday morning for 3+ hours. You could spend time with her on the other six days, it doesn't have to be during church.
Mom: Well, I usually have the grand-kids spend Saturday night with me, and then I take them to church, but you think my church is a cult now, and you won't let me bring her to church where she would have so much fun.
Me: Well first of all, going to church doesn't equate with spending time with you. Sitting on a bench for 1 1/2 hours, going to primary and sunday school isn't spending time with you. Second, under no circumstances is she allowed to go to a church whose founder is a pedophile.
Mom: That's exactly why I don't spend time with my grand-daughter, because of your attitude.
Unbelievable!!!
