Well, I'll readily admit that I'm not that great at using search tools. Basically I type in what I'm looking for and sort through pages until I find what I'm looking for. I imagine there are many more like me. And although I appreciate the fact that you found that. I really don't appreciate the sarcastic tone. It really doesn't need to get to that. Anyway, thank-you.

Inc. think you just killed this thread-Nathan Blood

Ah, thanks! I had not found this. It's buried deep, but finally, something. Thank-you for looking for that. I really appreciate it.

Neither is the Primary Program, but info is readily available about it, including a breakdown of classes and ages. Absolutely agree. I am not at all saying that a program should determine that. It's just "nice to know" information. Again, I recognize that, in the big scheme of things, it's really not that big of a deal at all.
-
Please show me the link that breaks down how the Young Women's is organized. I just found very general info about structure. I couldn't find anything about how the classes are organized. But......I certainly haven't ruled out that I've just totally missed it. I am certainly interested in seeing what you're seeing. Perhaps I'm totally out to lunch. I certainly realize that is a viable possibility.
-
I didn't comment on that, because I agreed with it and didn't think it was necessary to comment. Sorry. But then again, you could say the same thing about Primary. Yet the information about the Primary program is readily available. But, I do see your point. And I agree with it.
-
This just struck me.....LOL.....so true. And as an added benefit, I really learned some things I didn't know. It was a very useful experience for me despite my frustration.
-
Actually, I saw that, but thanks. Still people are missing my point. You don't have to convince me about the Young Women's program. And if what I've pointed out is not what you've perceived, that's fine, I understand. But my point is that it very much CAN be perceived that way. So, why should it not be posted? If somebody would spend 1/10th of the energy we've spent talking about it, it could be done. So why not? The arguments of, "I already know so it's not important to me," or "anybody that is interested can go elsewhere to look," or "it's not applicable to you so why worry about it," just reflect complacency to me. Why is everybody defending why it's not there, instead of thinking, hmmmm.....maybe it wouldn't hurt anything if it was there? I mean, the primary age groups were important enough to include. I think it may just be an oversight. But then I think I'm missing something. But the aforementioned arguments are not compelling to me. Ok, now I really, really, am making it more than it's worth. I'll let it go now. Thanks for all the contributions though.:)

Because it sure would be helpful to explain to my investigator wife, what our daughter's progression would be like through the years and that she would be considered as important as the young men. That is not apparent from the information presented That, and I'm cranky, of course.
-
Ok, fair enough. I think it sends a message that the Young Women's Program is not as important as the Young Men's Program. Perhaps that is my perception. I probably am making more of it than it is......ok, I am....to make my point. I appreciate your candid feedback. But.....I may not be the only one........granted, I'm sure people that even notice that are few and far between. But why not post it? Why not make the information available? It would take somebody 5 minutes. They could even copy it out of Wikipedia or mormonwiki.com....which both thought it was important enough to explain. Again, I realize I'm making more of it than it is. But I think it would be a small thing that would make the site better.

I agree, but with the additional caveat that it was most likely triggered also by his scheduled deployment. In other words, if he hadn't been affected by an upcoming deployment, I doubt he would have committed this act of "Jihad". He is quite simply a coward at many, many levels. He doesn't understand the values he represented when he donned that uniform. He didn't understand the values his chosen religion represented. He doesn't respect civil values, laws and regulations. He simply felt bad for himself and took it out on other people in the name of his religion. Unfortunately, he gets the headlines while the victims and their families are sub-stories to this horrible event. It is very difficult for me to focus on compassion to the victims instead of my anger toward this coward, but I try. I know the anger isn't good. I sure would like for him to have to face each of the victims families and look them in the eyes, but I doubt he'd think much beyond feeling sorry for himself being locked up, probably in his mind, unfairly. Uggh.....I hate when stuff like this happens.

Ok, fine. But my point is that the information should be READILY available. I think it sends a very distinct message about importance of the program when the information is not readily available. I certainly don't think that is the message that is intended. I know the structure and I can explain how it works. I have access to the Bishop and the materials he has to offer. I can explain to my wife so that she understands. What about the investigator that doesn't have the resources to figure it out on their own? Doesn't this send a message that it wasn't important enough to include? I think that the structure should be readily available and prominent on the Young Women's page and it most certainly is not. I've sent a feedback message to LDS.org suggesting an addition to content. It certainly is a fantastic website with an absolute ton of useful resources and information. This, I think, is just something that has been overlooked. Maybe I'm just frustrated because I literally spent hours looking for it on LDS.org, thinking it absolutely had to be there and simply could not find it. And I'm a little disappointed that nobody thought that was information that was necessary to provide. Maybe there's a reason. I don't know.

Why is there absolutely nowhere (that I can find) some page that explains what the young women's program structure is. In other words, one can easily find info that a boy becomes a Deacon at 12, a teacher at 14, and a Priest at 16. Where in the world is the correlating information for Young Women? I have DILIGENTLY SEARCHED LDS.org and can't find a single thing that explains this. Yes, I know, 12 Beehive, 14 Mia Maid, 16 Laurel, 18 RS. Where is that information so that somebody who doesn't know could possibly find it? My wife is an investigator and I have a 2 1/2 year old daughter. It sure would be nice to show her the info and that maybe somebody thinks that's important enough to provide on the website. Ok, so I rant a little. I'm quite frustrated that this info is not readily available to those that may be looking for it. I also realize that this is NOT LDS.org.....blah, blah, blah. This should be as easy as clicking on the Young Women link, but it isn't. I simply can't find this information anywhere. Am I missing it?
