For one, I have had to have to pray with people and help dissolve blood oaths. Some of these people exchanged their blood by making cuts on their hands and then rub against each other while some licked their blood.  Well, blood oath has spiritual significance and it is not what you dabble into as a result of momentary feelings that will soon fizzle away and you&#39;ll start regretting.

Whether you teach them or not, they will probe and learn it.<br> <br> Once parents do not take their place and rightly inform their children, they will learn it from different avenues. The problem with this is that most of these other places they learn from are defective. They might learn it from friends who don&#39;t know any better.
