    Because of the existence of J.W.D., I wish I would have written everything down!

    I've forgotten some of the scandalous details!

    These are some terrible stories. My heart goes out to some of you.

    A funny memory; an elder, very liberal. He told me this joke at a quick build which included the word F**k 3 times and w**k twice. I remember I was 24 at the time and was like

    I'll never forget being out in service and feeling humiliated and embarrassed when a former schoolmate of mine opened the door and looked at me like I was crazy. And I'll never forget the fear I had after that incident that Jehovah would destroy me at Armageddon because I was ashamed to be out doing "his work".

    I will never forget the time when my mother impersonated me and started corresponding with a weird canadian jw. She handed me a package of pictures, a tape, and a letter from the man. Come to find out mother had invited this man down for the next district convention. I stopped it by writing the man back, told him not to come and exposed my mother as a liar.

    I won't forget the last meeting in the back room we had with two elders . A worldly girl my son knew was attending meetings at the time and the Elder told us it was improper for my son to speak to her alone at the KH in the middle of the auditorium . Something inside of me blew....quiet , mild , meek.... me turned into Rambo mom. It was like the straw that broke the camels back.....this poor brother was shocked as I took over the conversation with a tiraid of... "don't you tell me who my son can or can not talk to.... , and Don't you get it if some one has a problem seeing two young people talking to each other that is their problem........ are you all crazy !!!! " Poor guy when I was done was batting his eyes going ."..aaa sorrry ummm aaa ". And this was an Elder I really like .

    I'll never forget the elder who used to clap his hand over his screaming toddler's mouth and nose to stop his screaming -- and breathing -- until he carried him downstairs and then beat the living daylights out of him.

    How I would cry in the car when my husband I would arrive at the Kingdom Hall parking lot. The last year of attending meetings, I hated, Hate, HATED it! We could never do enough....I swear every month we would get yanked in the "back room" and counseled about what we were doing wrong. I will never forget leaving that back room to a kingdom hall of elders familys who would just repulsively smile at you! How embarassing! Not fun for a young married couple to go through.
