Trapped,

You are describing a church life that I am unfamiliar with. I never saw young people not meet with MOTOS. Nor have I ever witnessed young people not have friends outside the church life.

I can hear messages warning young people against the trappings of the world outside the church life. Might have delivered one or two of those myself. But many christian groups give that message to their young people and some go a bit further with dress code regulations, etc.

I have observed many church kids marry outside the church with the proper courtship.
