Many kids are trapped in 2x2ism by their 2x2 parents. Even though you feel helpless, you actually have a lot power to get free of 2x2ism. Remember that your parents as so confused by 2x2ism that the thing which will make them most happy is for you to become a Worker - the biggest waste of a life possible. You can try to talk to your parents about how messed up their thinking is, it won't help much. Your parents are in a cult, and it is a psychological problem. You can't reason with them.  You also can't reason with the Friends. And of course you can't reason with the Workers.  But there are some very important weaknesses in 2x2ism where your efforts can be very effective.  The meetings are where you can create all sorts of havoc. I have a small list of things you can do which will be incredibly powerful.  Many of these things have been very successful with other kids.  You can add to the list if you want. 1) In meeting when a request for hymn is made, respond with the last hymn in the book - the one for funerals 2) Do not open your bible or hymn book in meeting. Don't even take it out of the bag. 3) Talk about Leviticus 20:13 and passages similar (about sex) to it during meeting 4) Take a big chunk out of the bread during emblems even though you are prohibited from participating 5) Drink most of the grape juice when it comes by 6) Set cell phone alarm to go off during prayer time in meeting with a Catholic ringtone.  Try doing this to your parent's cell phone or some old person's cell phone in the meetings. 7) Instead of a testimony, read the Nicene Creed aloud, even if you are not professing. 8) Instead of a testimony, recite the names of convicted 2x2 pedophiles and what level of hell they are in. 9) Memorize a prayer from The Book of Common Prayer and use it as your Prayer. 10) Lots of very loud ‘Amen’s 11) Pray to (not for) the Workers. Name some of them specifically. Especially pedophile ones. 12) End your prayer with Hail Mary Full of Grace. 13) Wear a very visible cross. Kiss it during meeting. Cross yourself many times 14) If you are banned from 'taking part' in meeting, just ignore them and keep talking. The only real way you can be prohibited from taking part is from barring you from being in the meeting home  (which is exactly what you want). 15) Always remember that workers are just cult drones trying to indoctrinate you. Say anything you want to them. They can't do anything to you that actually matters. 16) Imagine how much fun it would be to do this at convention or special meetings!!! Perhaps make it a competition with your friends to see who can get kicked up of the meetings sooner. These tactics are very likely to get your parents in trouble with the workers. That is the point. The more trouble your parents get into with the workers, the lower their status falls, the more likely they are to get into conflict with the workers, and the more likely they will be to start questioning 2x2ism. If your parents decide that they just won't take you to meetings, fantastic!!!  The next step is to start going to a normal church. Talk to other kids at school and see if any of their parents will pick up and take you with them to their church while your own parents are at meetings.  It's very important that you be a good kid in all other things. Get high marks in school, be nice to your parents, don't fight with your sisters and brothers, etc. Be good, and save your strength for making meetings a complete circus. Remember, that as a child doing these things, you have not done a single thing wrong. If your parents abuse you for this stuff, report them to the Police  & Child and Family Services for Child Abuse. When your parents explain to Child and Family Services that you did these things, the social worker will think your parents are insane. Make sure you tell the social worker that your parents are in a cult and are trying to force you to join it. A cult that is full of Child Sexual Assault. Mention the two 2x2s kids who recently committed suicide because their parents were trying to force them into this cult. And tell the social worker about the 2x2 websites that tell all about the cult. And remember to tell the social worker that your parents invite and let the workers/pedophiles sleep in your home. Remember, in this fight, you have far more power than your parents. Your parents are in the wrong. You parents are unknowingly abusing you by trying to indoctrinate you into a cult. You parents can be convicted of child abuse for doing this.
