    Not drugs

    Not even sex.

    Hell, it could of even been my Cosmo magazine that comes every month.

    Nope...she said it was me being in college.

    Sometimes I want to just run away from it all!

    Shame on you for trying to improve your mind and make something of yourself!

    Now put on some panty hose and sit there quietly while the good brothers tell us how we can think and believe.

    Wow, that's irritating. If you weren't a troll, WT spy (yeah, right!) I would feel sorry for you.

    Ah, heck! If you ARE a troll WT spy, I still feel sorry for you.

    Just kidding, ((((stillA)))). Hoping that made you smile inside.

    Hi Stilla, I guess your mom would rather you have ( Mental Obesity ) like most of the JW's have. A lack of exercising the brain.

    Enjoy college and have fun, The Claw.

    Looking back I think when my mother would say stupid stuff like that to me it was because she was secretly jealous. I like to think that.

    Hmmm...it is tempting...2 fine looking chicks like us at a bar...

    xjwms: Sounds like she is not approving

    I think she was just having a bad day today. But I can't help but think how happy she'd really be if I jsut quit school and started pioneering with her. (I just shudder at the thought. )

    Just kidding, ((((stillA)))). Hoping that made you smile inside. I'm still touchy about that "I think StillA is a troll" episode. But thanks for trying. carla: Wow! your mom doesn't say anything about Cosmo?! ha, my daughter never let dad see them.

    stilla,

    Ask your mom to rate being in college on a scale of 1 to 100 compared to things you aren't doing, like doing drugs, being promiscuous, getting pregnant out of wedlock, dating a biker, having a therapeutic abortion, etc. in terms of their "being worldly".

    If nothing else, it should make her realize that she really has no cause to complain about what you are doing by preparing yourself for your own future.

    Just because the WTS doesn't like it, doesn't mean that you should not decide for yourself what is in your own best interests. Ask her how many in your congregation listened to the WTS's advice about college back in the late 60s and 70s and 80s, and are stuck in dead end jobs and have no financial security. You can use the old saying that "people who don't learn from past mistakes are doomed to repeat them".
