Would this count as child abuse?

Taylor ultimately chose not to be sealed to a new "forever" father, and sat outside the temple while his mother, stepfather and half-siblings were joined inside.

Eleven-year-old Taylor, for example, was forced to decide if he would be "sealed" to his mother and new stepfather for all time in a Mormon ceremony, something his father - who would retain legal rights - opposed.

Sounds damned emotionally abusive to leave an eleven-year-old sitting outside. What a heartless act!

"That was two years ago. Today, his mother and stepfather are divorced, and Taylor wants little to do with the LDS Church." Welll..DUH!

It's difficult for me to even imagine a mother that would put her child through something like this at that age. Where is the condemnation for her action?

Someone on this forum stated that no longer were people left "sitting outside the temple." This was two years ago, according to the article, so has the practice been changed since then?

It seems that in this thread, one person's adultery is another's GOD 'commanded' polygamy.
