Nothing is a no-brainer with kids in the church. A YM from my hometown committed a planned armed robbery/heist of a movie theatre. A YW, now of adult age, was arrested for having sex with her probatee (she was a probation officer). My Priest advisor (he is now a stake president in the west) had a somewhat troubled oldest son (he was 11 and refused to come to church), who is now in prison.
These kids can't even tell you half the time what books are in what standard work.
I don't take anything for granted. There is more that I can say on this topic, but I will leave it at that.
