"George Frey for The New York Times

Michelle Benward of New Frontiers for Families helping move furniture into a
house for exiled young men.

Hard" series and comedies, they burned them and gave him an ultimatum. Stop
watching movies, they said, or leave the family and church for good.

thrown into an unfamiliar world he had been taught to fear."
