Fear. Intimidation. Emotional Blackmail.
If you've got a winning hand, might as well play it for all it's worth.

Hopefully, they won't be able to hold on to many of them
Fear. Intimidation. Emotional Blackmail.
They'll try all those things, but they don't seem to work as well these days.

Like they always have... by heavy duty indoctrination and threats.

The young JW's of today are a lot more "worldly-wise" than they were in my day. Their access to information is for greater. Many more books about the JW's availabe and of course the great curse of the WT ...the Internet.
I know of many young JW's who will go to parties, rock concerts, night clubs, out drinking. Something that would have you before an Elder in my youth before you could say Judicial Committee.

Here's a thought. As I said in a previous post, with the "for JWs only" issue of the WT coming out, I think there's going to be more and more issues on $$$. This is pure speculation, but I believe the borg will eventually suggest that df'd, da'd, and inactive kids be cut out of their parents' wills. There are some dubs that are quite wealthy, and I venture to say that this threat would be enough to keep at least some of them stickin' around. (Just one more way to imprison the younger ones in the borg.)
