Freedom from Informal Pressure

Optional participation stays optional.

Optional participation should stay optional across a visit, a reminder, and a return. A person should not have to keep defending the same boundary.

For example, an invitation to discuss a reading can be declined without turning the refusal into a new request for explanation. This is a teaching example; no live invitation service is offered here.

Actual agreements, necessary notices, and scoped emergency duties remain separate. Support, closeness, money, or silence does not create unrelated authority.

In this edition, public readings have no account gate, completion task, or reminder subscription. Interactive gatherings and messaging are off. This describes the intended scope, not a verified guarantee against pressure in every setting. There is no verified human reporting channel yet.
