I am sure I am not making myself clear. I am obviously biased. I do feel as though I was told less than the truth, purposely or not, it still felt deceptive. Were they intentionally deceptive, I seriously doubt it. I am sure they thought it was no big deal. What I meant by my above statement was I will not depend solely on what they tell me but will check further with church leadership. She is a mature responsible young woman, and yes, I would let her go off with the group because basically she can take care of herself. She loves the youth group and they do lots of good work. This has been my only complaint. As my OP stated, I was devastated because when I wrote that I was emotional...definitely upset, and probably crying. Now, I feel as though I have made too big of a deal over this and I feel kinda silly in fact. This are not dishonest people, as I stated to begin with, I am over protective and basically that is what it boils down to...
Sorry I have been so confusing.
To me..that has been the crux of this whole matter...that somehow you were not told, by those in authority, what the situation was OR that the situation had changed. THEY should have been the ones to tell you and why...AT THE TIME that the rule changed...not through your daughter and not later when you showed up for worship.
I agree with making sure, in the future, that you double check everything with church leadership....just simply so that you know what to expect...and to make sure that there is NOT a pattern of partial deception going on here that maybe they aren't even aware of committing.
