My comment: I might* not choose to send my own child to such a conference.* Your question: if the lifestyle is an acceptable alternative why would* you choose not to send your children to such a conference?* You see the difference. My son is 10, and would have to be 14 to be accepted at such a workshop, so it is a bit of a moot point, but the truth is that I don't know whether I would or wouldn't. It would depend a great deal on my perceptions of his character and situation at that time. My guess is that I would not suggest attendance or choose to send him to the conference, and that I certainly wouldn't send him there if he didn't want to go, but that if he told me he wanted to attend, I would probably allow it. Teenagers who want information will get it with or without approval, I would rather they get it at a conference than on a streetcorner. My point was hypothetical: I meant only that even if I would not let my own child attend under any circumstances, I am not entitled to prevent any other parent from making their own choice. Would a person who thought that a Sunday-school was recruiting for a dangerous cult be entitled to prevent other parents from sending their children to that Sunday-school?
