My parents gave me an ultimatum either skip my high school graduation and go to my church's graduati

As a Christian, I am vehemently disgusted by how the parents behaved here. Forcing OP to attend graduation at the church she didn't enjoy because of a past bullying experience just screams a lack of care, respect, and concern for her feelings. That is leaps and bounds beyond how Christians are supposed to act, and they need some serious intervention.

So this is religious trauma and is gonna push her away from it.

There were likely other classmates who either were forced to or willingly chose to do the power hungry pastor's bidding. We didn't hear about them, but I suspect that there are other parents who will have to pick out their own nursing homes. And to the OP and anyone else putting up with stuff like this: Get your own finances in order. Mom and Dad are going to leave their assets to their church, no matter if you stay in obedience to them or not.

Those parents should read their Bibles again because they are not being Christ like at all.

[@rebeccaconlon9743]

The bible preaches that children should obey without question...

[@Dargonhuman]

@rebeccaconlon9743 the Bible also prraches that people should honor their agreements which the parents aren't doing by going back on their word.

​@@rebeccaconlon9743if a parent wants to do something inappropriate with their child, should the child agree, as per the bible???
