Security Check Children
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In Scientology, the Security Check Children is a security checking auditing procedure designed to be applied to children aged 6 to 12. L. Ron Hubbard, founder of Scientology, issued the security check as HCO Bulletin of 21 September 1961, also known as HCO WW Security Form 8.
The child is put on the E-meter, holding a can (the electrode of the E-meter) in each hand. If a question gives a read on the E-meter, the child is questioned further as to the reason for the read.
The procedure runs through 99 questions. It starts:
- The following is a processing check for use on children.
- Be sure the child can understand the question. Rephrase it so he or she can understand it. The first question is the most potent.
- 1. WHAT HAS SOMEBODY TOLD YOU NOT TO TELL?
- 2. HAVE YOU EVER DECIDED YOU DIDN'T LIKE SOME MEMBER OF YOUR FAMILY?
- 3. HAVE YOU EVER TAKEN SOMETHING BELONGING TO SOMEBODY ELSE AND NEVER GIVEN IT BACK?
- 4. HAVE YOU EVER PRETENDED TO BE SICK (ILL)?
- 5. HAVE YOU EVER MADE YOURSELF SICK (ILL) OR HURT YOURSELF TO MAKE SOMEBODY SORRY?
The procedure is usually applied to children of members of the Sea Org, the paramilitary organisation (run along Navy lines) that runs Scientology.
HCOB 21 September 1961 is currently published in the Red Volumes, vol IV, p378.
