I thought they were told NOT to bring the book bags, just the tracts and MAYBE a bible. As for her not liking to admit she is a jw (in whatever 'sense') that is perfectly normal to me. I have never had a jw like to admit they are a jw! It isn't until you ask point blank often repeating yourself that they finally admit 'I am one of....'. Her thinking she is showing this for the first time? Normal again, they like to keep the r & f in the dark about many things and why not the new tract so they can be full of zeal thinking they have this new and wonderful info nobody has seen yet? Her being alone? Don't pioneer's go alone? I have had a few women come to my door alone, poor things. They had incredibly bad timing! It was right after all this jw crap started in my house and I gave the poor woman an earful!
