I did it, but I was timid when I knew I needed to be stern. I was afraid of hurting feelings, and I was afraid I might be wrong, and I was afraid I was overstepping boundaries. As a direct result, a young man’s life is changed forever, and not for the good. I can’t say more than that, except to say that it didn’t have to be that way. Heavenly Father made a way for it to have been different, and I didn’t do my job.
Sorry to hear that; sometimes life’s lessons make for a bitter pill to swallow. But, I think from your post, you learned a valuable lesson and one you will probably not forget.
Hope you feel better in time…
