Last on our Menu, First in Importance!
This is the most sacred principle governing our existence!
All of US need to feel safe at all times and sometimes we choose to share embarrassing facts about themselves and do so without fear of becoming a subject of gossip or retaliation in the larger community, or having hurtful matters reach the wrong ears, even unintentionally. Remember we are an eclectic lot with many diverse private, personal, & professional relations to be mindful of. Pre-discussion promotes proper communication!
a) Everyone who participates in any circle agrees that the personal matters discussed in circles stay in the circles. This includes the names of people at any circle. It is ok to share what was is said in a circle. NEVER include name of who actually said it in any discussion!
b) The only time confidentiality may be breached honorably is when it is known or when reasonable certain that keeping silence may result in significant harm or death to a person, especially a child or other dependent.c) When those of US whose choose to share our personal contact info with others of US ie: Phone #, email, place of work, address etc… it is a private choice! This choice should be honored by all and never should a request be made of any one of US to disclose the data of another. To partake in this
behavior is highly dishonorable and greatly frowned upon! We if at all, when deemed important, will always call and ask permission for both parties respect or politely recommend that person ask for it when they see them! NEVER for any reason do we relinquish others of US data to anyone without direct permission!
Note: There are very few if any reasons or things one of US can do to be asked not to attend circles. However this is the one sacred principal that when breached, an immediate group conscious is in order and if any one of US attending circle, via a secret ballot, votes yes to banning, It is done! Please guide friends ASAP about this sacred principal.
This behavior demands zero tolerance for the protection of the whole!
