Im more than willing to juggle my schedule if someone legitimately needs help, but Im not willing to do so for a standard home teaching visit. That goes for my home teachers and the people I teach. Sorry, but just like everybody else, I often work long hours trying to keep food on the table and a roof over our heads. Im not giving up precious family time on a whim so that we can hit 100%.
Anyway, to combat this issue, he created a google calendar for me and him where he puts our appointment times. This past Sunday, we went back to the family where he had conducted the maturation clinic last time. This time, his lesson was 45 minutes long. And he kept asking question after question of these kids who are, again, between 3 and 9. When they didn't know an answer, he would start badgering them. Dude............know your audience. Nobody cares about your lesson, especially kids after 3 hours of church!
His lesson was about Adam, Eve, and the Atonement. And he spent a ton of time talking about Adam and Eve being naked. It was.............awkward.
He asked me to teach the lesson next month (look at me, moving up in the world!) and my lesson is going to be 5 minutes long at the absolute max. I have a feeling that he is going to feel that my lesson is insufficient and will probably monologue for 20 minutes after I finish.
He also asked me to set up an appointment with another of our families. When I talked to the guy in the family, he said "thanks for checking up on us, but we are going to be out of town for basically the rest of the month with thanksgiving and all. Why don't we shoot for next month?", which is just my style. When I told my partner, he was annoyed and asked if I had nailed down an appointment for December. When I chuckled and said no, he said that we gotta nail down a december appointment or that this family would weasel their way out of future appointments. Oh brother.......
