Ahh yes, the same way you could always vote no when confirming appointments in sacrament meeting. I'm sure they make it perfectly comfortable for true believing parents to be part of the conversation and thereby imply that these grown-ass men "called of God" maybe shouldn't have unsupervised interrogations about whether their children are "chaste" enough.*

*-Not that I would have told the truth with my parents in the room either, LOL, but I like to think it would keep the Bishops who like the process a little too much from really digging in.

Exactly.

If my parents joined in interviews when I was a teenager, it would absolutely have been the "Bishop and my Parents" vs. me.
