Then, you can announce at the beginning of the meeting what the ground rules are, i.e. no cross talking and the like. Many say there aren't any rules in AA but groups are autonomous except in matters that effect AA as a whole. So, your group is entirely within it rights to set it's own rules and enforce them in the event someone finds he's being belittled or criticized. That's not what AA is about. Honesty without love is cruelty.
