I take the stance that simply because a communicator is now a discarnate doesn't mean they automatically know what's right for an incarnate and it doesn't mean they have the right to say what they please.
Busybodies when alive in-the-body may still be those same busybodies now they're 'dead'. They don't automatically become omniscient angels.

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru.

Some people ....... have a gate keeper, etc. who makes sure certain Spirits are not allowed to come thru. But then, if Uncle Joe, the village drunk, wants to come thru, the person who gets the message from Uncle Joe might be able to discern if that was really Uncle Joe and it might build up confidence with that person that Mediumship might really be real.
And what should happen if a person's parents were 'good for nothing' people, would they be 'allowed' to come thru?

An open mind is key and even though my human nature may not like the message, it's also about taking on board what that message is all about - regardless of palate.

Your comments reminded me..........
I ONCE DID A TEST
One time, I went about trying to test things out in various ways. In one test, I told the Spirits that work with me, to give messages, but in the opposite. For example: if the message was really "You will go to Los Angeles", the person would relate to me "You will not got to Los Angeles". To 'cement' this new 'policy', I passworded the 'order'.
Those who apparently were Mediums would give me the 'opposite' messages but would also mention that I should take my messages as being the opposite of what was said. This went on for some time, I think about 1/2 year. Then I decided to change things back to what they were. Sounded great but nothing happened...... because I didn't give the password. I tried numerous passwords and nothing happened. Then one day, I remembered the password and everything was returned to 'normal'. LOL!

What do I expect from a medium?
A high level of integrity.

You're the one that advocates changing messages.
What you have to remember is that usually, when a Spirit contacts a person it's not any old Spirit, it's someone who's been at least a good friend. The Spirit would know them anyway.

In this thread I'm sure I have not advocated changing messages and I doubt I've done that elsewhere either.
I am aware that ideally a loving communicator will come with an uplifting message to demonstrate their survival and to send their love to the recipient. That for me and for others of my Spiritualist group of contacts is the essence of evidential mediumship.

A medium doesn't have to know every individual sitter's expectations but communication with an identified spirit loved one is likely to be a minimum. Maybe you feel my expectations of mediums and mediumship is reasonable or unfair but they remain my expectations.
What others might expect outside of my simple expectations is moot and I don't claim any insight into that.
