So, my JW mother passed on word to the local cong. that I was DF-ed, had just moved into the area and could use that yearly 'shepherding' phone call to see if anything has changed. I was not home at the time, my husband took the call. I am debating returning the call. With all the new info I now have under my belt, part of me thinks it would be empowering to have a discussion with an elder that didn't leave me on the defensive. The other part of me thinks I'd be better off banging my head off of the nearest wall out of frustration. I would love to hear for myself what rote answers they have to offer up. I certainly wouldn't go as far stepping into a KH or letting them into my house, but I'm wondering if a phone call would be just as bad. Any input?
