    ???????


    Could you fill us by perhaps making a thread on it?

    you are truely in our prayers...........

    whats funny is who is doing the christian thing? the org will resort to guilt and bullying to force their will upon you but on the other hand you who were betrayed......... you have compassion for the wife because you understand her brainwashed motivations.

    same with my family when they cut me off for leaving......... i pity them and pray for them but unlike their cult religion i do not condemn them for it.

    the hardest part of your road is ahead tho for now due to 99 percent of your family shoveling their guilt upon you but be strong and know that you have our support and prayers

    You ROCK !!!!!

    I tried fading for a couple of years but the guilt ate me up.

    My spouse also turned me in to the cult and our lives became a living hell.

    I finally found peace when I cut the Watchtower's umbilical cord with a razor in one swift move.

    Peace to you,

    Honesty

    Fading Eld- I'm sorry you had to deal with a jc. It's like being dragged through a knothole in a door , backwards. I admire your strength of conviction and standing up like a true man towards your own father and father in law. It's so odd in these situations where witness family members feel like they have an accurate take on what's really going on in your wife and your life , when in actuality they don't have a clue as to the depth of your situation. It really comes down to what you and your wife want to do in your relationship, which only YOU and HER can decide. Kudos to you my friend ! And, it's wonderful you are close to those boys ! Protect them with all your heart, they'll never leave you in their hearts ! Peace to you my friend, keep your chin up

    Granny.... your words are wise.

    Yes FadingELD. You have done a HUGE service to your kids. Your wife is an adult; hopefully she will come around in time. You are your kids' advocate. I wish you the very best.

    Juni
