all of the Mormons who want to stay here, and the Church needs them elsewhere, but because family ties are often very strong in the Church, it's really hard for people, women especially, to live away from family.
My wife always got really sad around Christmas time thinking of family, and it was expensive to us when we lived outside of the state because we needed to fly home every year. She didn't tell me this was an ultimatum or anything else, but I just felt bad seeing her so sad so I always offered to fly us home even though we really couldn't afford it.
