Page 103 of Elder book says a relative would not be DF just for associating with a relative as long as he does not talk about spiritual things.
Is there any way to have this direction copied here word for word? Thanks. swife.

If you show the elders information in the elders book, all they'll ask you is how did you get that elders book.

Of course at all depends on the elders, if they want to nail you they will, it's them as a body against a publisher with no power.
This is probably the deciding factor, more than anything else. Perhaps they have bigger fish to fry right now. Like elders looking at internet porn.

Actually, it all depends on how much the elders on the body "like" you. If you have and give big bucks, are an elder yourself who associates with DF family members, or similar situation, they probably will do nothing.
If the elder body finds you to be a troublemaker or obnoxious, you probably will get booted.

As far as I'm concerned (and as it would seem, my mother, the JW feels this way too), any sort of activity that a family would normally do together (eating, family visits, going to restaurants, movies, helping each other with projects, shopping for hats...) is the NORMAL FUNCTION OF A FAMILY IN SOCIETY. As such, any of these activities IS family business, and none of anyone else's....
My thoughts, after the fourth, during which I visited my mother, my brother (JW) and his daughters were there. We ate together, and then my brother and I took the kids to the fireworks.....Hmmm. Family business, indeed.
