Came in. The only one ever in my family history, for which everyone had an adjective for me such as high-strung, tempermental, mentally unstable.
Another poll: raised in or came in?

Mom started studying when I was 14. After that I didn't have a much of a choice.

My mom started a study when I was 10. I got baptized at 14 mostly because my best friend did.

born and raised .....so was my husband.....and just about everyone else in my wacky a$$ family.
Anyone remember a talk given a few years ago at a DC that said we were no longer suppose to use the term "born and raised in the "truth" you were to say you were "raised around the" truth"??? I remember thinking......what the?? Isn't that what it is...born and raised....shrugged shoulders and still used the no-no term anyway.

My mother and father met through the JW org. in 1942. Their parents were all JW. I was born in 1945 and my first convention was at Cedar Point Ohio, I was like 2 months old. That's probably when the first seeds of doubt began to sprout in my little head. It is truly amazing that I escaped at all.
