i'm also new here and i understand what your going through,i left 4 years ago and then last may i went back because i missed my family and got reinstated in july and then ones wouldnt talk to me and then the elders and some in the hall wanted me to take my 2 kids and leave my unbeliving husband.,i was like that isnt happening.so i havent been to the meetings since december i moved with my husband and kids to a diffrent house and it was nice i thought they cant find me here and my family is upset and telling me i need to go back to the meetings your killing your kids if you dont take them to the meetings.dont turn your back on jehovah,i'm so sick of it everything. i'm just not going to take the pressure anymore between my husband and my mother.see my family i havent heard from in the 4 years i've been disfellowshipped is now upset with me for not going and not even caring that they wanted me to leave my husband.she said they are just imperfect people you have to forgive them.ugh no i'm not.most of my family i havent seen in 9 years because they are upset i dont feel the way they do. i have found having friends that arent witnesses helps alot trying to get the support you need,i'm doing that through my friends on fb,the fb i'm told the society is not wanting them to have anymore cause it takes away from there time in service i was told this by my mother.

Welcome to both of you, crazy2try and beccaslife.
beccaslife, do not worry about the things your JW family say. They're indoctrinated to say those things; it isn't their fault. They are trained to use guilt, fear, and threats to coerce people. "God (who is the personification of love) is going to kill your kids." They can say such things with a straight face and not ever think once of how impossible that statement is, let alone blasphemous to god and hateful toward you.
There's a lot of good support here. Also check out all the other great sites on the net (are we allowed to post links?): jwrecovery magazine, Jehovah's Witnese Recovery, freeminds, jwfacts, and many more, including some excellent youtubes. Just google.
