Out of Control

And on top of that we havent recieved any of there pledge dues. Nothing we say or do has seemed to work so far. Due to the problem with the pledge, its causing internal conflicts among the brothers. If i could simply kick the out of pledging i would but, we are close to chartering and one of our requirement is to have a certain number of members and without the new pledges we would not have enough people to get chartered. . . What the hell do i do?????
Pleas, any suggestions would be really appreciated!

The inmates are running the asylum! What will you guys do when you become parents? Your job as actives is to lead, to teach, to set standards and to enforce them. Failure to do so will result in disaster even if these out of control pledges help you receive your charter. I agree with setting a time limit for dues and also for making attendance mandatory. Unless you regain the control you should have had from the beginning, how can you succeed?

Where are your advisors? Time to call them in.
