My Child Was Pressured to Join the Chinese Communist Youth League Three Times

May 12, 2009

(Clearwisdom.net) When my child had just started junior high school, he was ordered by the school to join the Communist Youth League. He came home and asked me what to do. Although I said he should not join it, I felt a bit scared.

The next day I talked to a fellow practitioner about it. This practitioner said that if the school forced you to join, you could choose to quit after you joined. After I got home, I thought that it was not a good thing to do. When my son came home after school in the morning, he said that the teacher had mentioned it again. My child said that he needed to discuss it with his parents. I told him that he should go back and tell the teacher that his family did not allow him to join, and instead he had to study hard to be useful to the country. "Your family does not allow you to join any political group. If your teacher still insists, I will go and talk to your teacher," I said.

Although I was very determined when I said this, I still felt somehow scared. I sent forth righteous thoughts the whole afternoon: a Dafa practitioner's child should not to join any of the evil Party's organizations.

In the afternoon when my son came home from school, he said the teacher did not look for him anymore but asked his classmates to join. I said, "You should clarify the truth to your classmates to save them." My child said he would.

When the new school term started, my son came home and again he said that the teacher had asked him to join the Communist Youth League. I thought to myself, "The last time I did not have a steady mindset and was scared about clarifying the truth. This time I am not afraid." I told him, "You should not join this Communist Youth League. If the teacher forces you, I will definitely go talk to him. You go to school and I will send forth righteous thoughts. Rest assured, they definitely won't force you to join."

When my son came home in the evening, he said very happily that the teacher did not mention at all that he should join the Youth League, instead they focused on his classmates.

When he attended his third year of junior high school, he came home and said that the teacher had asked those students who were the top ten in the exams to join the Communist Youth League. I wondered, "Why is this? Where did I not do well? Why does the schoolteacher keep asking my son to join the Communist Youth League? For sure there must be something I did not do well." When I thought about it, I suddenly understood: I should have saved the sentient beings. How does this work if I only care that my own child does not join the Communist Youth League. Didn't Master tell me that the evil Party again wants to harm people and didn't he ask me to dissolve the evil? When I thought about this, I could not help crying, and I said in my heart, "Master, your disciple's enlightenment quality is so poor. I will for sure persuade those children who joined the Communist Youth League to quit it and clarify the truth to them."

I sent forth righteous thoughts one more time, locking onto all the evil in other dimensions that supported this and determinedly not allowing the teachers or principal to mention joining the Communist Youth League.

Several days later when my child came home, he said that the teacher seemed to have forgotten about it and did not mention again about joining the Communist Youth League. How good it would have been if I had thought of this earlier.

The next day I talked to a local coordinator and told him about this issue. Then I said, "I suggest that, for those of us who have children attending school, when we hear of this, we should eliminate those evil elements.

I recalled a similar episode. My niece, who was still attending primary school, told me the school was going to organize a history competition related to the evil Party. She did not want to memorize the contents, but her teacher still chose her to go and participate. If she did not memorize what was required, she would be criticized. I said, "You do not need to memorize it, because your school won't hold that activity." I sent forth righteous thoughts for this several times. One week later, I asked my niece about it and she said, "The schoolteacher said the activity was canceled."

One year has passed since this incident. Tonight before I went to bed, I suddenly recalled that Master said words to the effect that there should definitely not be a paradise for the evil. Dafa practitioners are the truly great people of the current time. We should not wait until the evil appears before we eliminate it. We do not cultivate for them. From now on, we should have very strong righteous thoughts: the old forces and the evil Party are not allowed to force any Chinese to join the evil organizations and destroy them.
