Oh, knock it off!!!

(A statement made to the author by an elder in the Mormon General Authority. He was concerned she was choosing not to have children.)

Karisa 🤢😱🤯🤬 6d
Susanita I encountered two young Mormons last evening during my neighborhood walk. They were very friendly and personable, but I assured them that I have my own church and didn‘t need information about theirs. In fact, I‘ve been attending my church for more years than they have been alive. 6d

Lsmoore43 OMG. I am speechless. 6d
BookmarkTavern One of the many reasons I left the LDS church. I was told my only value lay in the sons I could provide to a husband. 6d
kspenmoll Not a surprise seeing who said this to her!!! I have a friend who was Mormon, left the Church when her dad was excommunicated for his homosexuality. She then was inundated with members & family persuading her to return. She eventually did for she sorely missed the community. I attended her baptism. But when she moved to CA to teach, a few years latter she left for good. She is an amazingly strong woman. (edited) 6d
Eggbeater "The sperm you provide, over which your wife presides, is a total waste of a wank." That would be my response. 6d
Suet624 @Eggbeater hahaha. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 6d
Suet624 @kspenmoll that‘s hard to do, leaving a community.. sometimes it‘s harder to stay though. 6d

I‘ve read many middle grade books written in verse, and if I were in my classroom today, I might have shared a stack. However, from home, the first one that came to mind that I hadn‘t already seen shared was this one about a girl dealing with a few truly difficult experiences.

My review includes a few examples of the poetic form used in the story. https://litsy.com/p/eG1FQmRpYzdn

A suffragist & scholar of Egyptology,Amelia Peabody is the epitome of the 1920s modern woman.Armed with her journal,umbrella(a handy weapon),& new friend Evelyn, she travels down the Nile to the architectural site of the Emerson brothers.What follows is a wild caper filled with “accidents,” unknown enemies,man-made and environmental obstacles,evil adversaries,supernatural forces,& romance.

StaceGhost I love how she talks about the evil adversary lol 2mo
