Welcome I'm so glad you have your close family, and i hope your neice listens to her grandpa and goes go college. I have nothing against believing jw's, its only the harmful practices I rail against, like prohibiting college and shunning. Of course the blood doctrine and the paedophile problem is most damagjng but without the shunnjng practice people would be freer to challenge such issues, or leave if they wish. So essentially the shunning practice holds them all hostage to these other issues they may not agree with. Everyone is too fearful to speak out.
Glad to have you here!! Another 1 -0 to the exjws !!

Hi Toby, so glad you and your wife are on the same page with everything, and that you were able to move to a new region. Lot of positives in your story, you sound like a person who thinks and plans carefully.
The internet has really helped us all cut through the deceit and be able to make better decisions.
