	~~==Question: Are there benefits to having youth do private, one-on-one interviews with Bishops to determine worthiness for participating in certain Church ordinances and activities?==~~
	~~===Introduction to Question===~~
	~~Sam Young is a former Latter-day Saint bishop of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints who started the movement Protect LDS Youth in the summer of 2017.~~

	Young announced that he was excommunicated from the Church on September 16, 2018 based on what his Stake President perceived was conduct considered to be apostate. Apostasy is defined in part by the Church by acting in deliberate, open, frequent opposition to the Church and its mission.

	The core message of Young’s movement was that the Church was wrong for allowing one-on-one interviews between youth and local bishops to determine worthiness for participating in the Church’s sacred ordinances and, more specifically, that it was inappropriate for them to ask questions related to a youth’s infractions of the Church’s standards of chastity including practicing masturbation, viewing pornography, and so forth. These interviews, according to Young, are invasive and can sometimes allow for bishops to be sexually abusive.		{{Header}}

	~~This core message has struck a chord with many active Latter~~-~~day Saints~~ and ~~former Latter-day Saints~~. ~~They have sought hard to eradicate the Church of this practice~~.		Some individuals wonder if one-on-one interviews between youth and adult leaders is appropriate. This is especially relevant regarding discussions about chastity sexuality.

	~~There may be good reasons for keeping the practice, though, and FAIR wishes to provide resources to people to become informed of those reasons.~~		Jennifer Roach, a convert to the Church and therapist, explained many reasons for allowing one-on-one interviews between youth and adult leaders.

	~~===Response to Question===~~
	Jennifer Roach, a convert to the Church and therapist, explained many ~~great~~ reasons for allowing interviews ~~in her presentation at the 2020 FAIR Conference in Provo, UT~~.
