Today I wished my dad a happy Father's Day. He told me "thank you, I know you feel this way on all days and not just today". Then he told me that he will miss me at the district convention next week. WHAT? Why does that have to be brought up? I didn't say anything about it. I know he was trying to be nice...I guess. What should I reply back to this?

Tell him you understand but the truth has important relevance to you from now on.

Happy Father's Day to all the fathers out there, especially those separated from their sons and daughters by the family destroying religion known as Jehovah's Witnesses.

I don't even bother anymore. It's my husband's Father's Day now. He gets the breakfast in bed, he gets the steak dinner, he gets the beer, he gets the card. I'm not putting myself out for someone who will slap me down for it and won't allow my husband (who has done nothing wrong) into his house.

You did good Elbear. Oubliette Thankyou for the encouragement. It's been another day of knowing my chidren was done wrong by being raised in this cult. I sometimes think I will never be able to right the wrong. Only those of us truly understand the damage this cult has done. For many of us we will never be able to fix the things we did in the name of the GB. Some how my wife and I will have to rise above all of this. But it's going to be a long painful journey.
