onacruse I acutally found out about that WT cover from here which is why I mentioned it. I'm twenty-three and did leave when I was 12, but my father has stayed involved. And even though my parents are seperated, they spilt before we left, JWs are still a part of my life. Actually I hadn't given much daily thought to them until I came here. I don't think I'm obsessive yet, it's just nice to know I'm not alone in my questions, doubts, or experiences. That other women and girls chafed at wearing dowdy floral print dresses and fidgeted during service, waiting eagerly for it to be over. That I don't have the sympathy for people I should have, because that connection was cauterized shut by the Kingdom Hall, who told me the kids at school who brought in cupcakes for everybody on their birthdays, and wanted me to come over to their sleepovers were evil and bad asociations. That I could try to convert them but not be friends with them. That my congregation was my best friend. I haven't had anyplace until now I could really talk about this. I've kept it inside too long.

Thanks for the article. Just a couple weeks agos, I was looking for stats on how other church numbers compared to the JW stats.

RubyS, welcome to JWD!
In my experience, everyone who "left" when they were in their early teens just kept on running, and never looked back. That's why I said it was a bit "odd." No offense intended.

Hey,
Now that we are talking about the Yearbook 2007, does anybody has a copy to scan the pic of all the members from the GB? is the first time I saw them appearing together.
