    I am impressed how you've stopped the insanity that is endorsed by the WT organization of parent's treatment toward their own children., by coming to your realization,,and now your son now knows "unconditional love." He seems to have inherited your wit and humor too. I'm a grandma who praises you, even if your mother doesn't. Take care.

    Sorry to hear that about your mom and the mean things she said about you. Maybe you could ask your brother not to repeat too much of what's said about you behind your back, if you think it might help.

    It's good you have each other to talk to, though. When siblings are broken up because of abusive parents and an abusive religion, it makes it very hard on the one who manages to break free. I don't know it it is more difficult to remain trapped in that familiar pain as my sibs are, but I do know I could never go back to living in their kind of denial, always proclaiming, "how happy jehober's people are."

    I too used to experience my share of physical abuse, but I witnessed a lot more of it being directed at my younger sister. The guilt and fear that goes with that experience is too much for a child. I am sorry to hear that your brother went through that, and that you did too. I guess it's good you don't remember . . .? Maybe that's also part of what keeps people locked in - they don't recognize or recall the abuse - telling themselves they deserved it, it coulda' been worse, they weren't so bad, after all, we had so many fun family vacations, food, shelter, clothes, etc.

    Anyway, vent anytime you want; many of us have been through these lovely family experiences and many of us struggle alone with the issues; better to share and get it out and move on as much as possible!

    Nvrgnbk,

    JW parents say the nastiest things to their kids I have ever heard in my life. My own mother, and many of her siblings have said things to their kids that someone's worst enemy would not say. Another example of true christian behavior.

    I totally understand your feelings.

    NGB, I know this dosen't help much, but if nothing else, remember that words like that, (from your parents), only validate the stand you made. They are nutcases, not you.
