9. Wow, I was 11. Im 19 now and then I only wanted to do what I felt was right. At that age your ability to reason isn't developed. But ofcourse you are not supposed to reason as a JW. Only obey and go and make converts with people and convince them that JWs are mainstream christian with the only real truth.

Needless to say, this nine year old wasn't the first at that age to get dunked for Jah/8 old guys in Brooklyn
The thing about it is that the Dubs get all smug and talk about how in Christendom they baptize infants, well nine years old is not an infant, but there's a reason why a child can't sign a contract.

Wait until puberty kicks in. This kid's life is ruined.
Infant baptism is something the JWs pretend doesn't happen.

what does it matter--really? the kid will most likely leave the cult when a young adult---and enter the real world. let his / her parents carry the pain of seeing the kid leave---its their fault for encouraging such silly behaviour.

Steve2 - 77 baptized at this Dunedin, New Zealand convention.
Blimey. I wonder how many were born ins?
Beats the usual 3 born ins that get craptised in the UK.
I hope these 77 NEVER give in to Satan and 'forward non essential emails' (WT 15 July 2011) or Jehovah(tm) will become very angry indeed!

I think I was about 18 years old and was too young to realize the significance in what I was doing.
