I had three different mission presidents. The first one was a Russian guy who didn't even speak English, and he would send people home once in awhile. The second mission president was a BYU Russian professor, and he would send missionaries home about once a month. My third mission president came into the office and told me it was his goal to NEVER send a missionary home, because it has the potential to destroy a missionary's life and maybe even the missionary's relationship with his/her parents. I think the third mission president also has a good point. |

People are voting "yes, it's ok" on this? Kinda surprised. This one seemed obvious.

My mission president worked his darnedest to keep guys on their mission.
I can only think of one person that was sent home (for pederastic tendencies). BUT, he was also fiercely respected. So obedience was pretty good. I didn't know of any missionaries in my mission that were off the reservation. It never occurred to me that there were guys choking the chicken every night convinced that this was not something detracting from their spirituality and worthiness. |

It's better that one elder perish... (and honestly I think a lot of times these missionaries being that destruction on themselves. Agency, anyone?) |
