Chris Harrison Posted August 22, 2012 at 05:29 PM Report Share Posted August 22, 2012 at 05:29 PM It is up to you all to interpret your own rules. See RONR pp. 588-591 for some principles to help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your bylaws specifies some other type of membership, then that's where you have to look for the rules that apply to that kind of membership. I would expect the answer to hinge on whether the people are considered to be the members, or whether the household is a single "member". But that's a matter of bylaws interpretation, which each society must do for itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
