When your secret boyfriend calls and you mumble into the phone as your mom stares at you angrily."uhmm, sorry i'm not allowed to talk to boys on the phone"
You know you're a JW teenager if you even have something called a "secret boy/girl friend" in the first place. laters kaykay_mp
Your write a research paper using the Society's publications
Been there, done that too. And getting funny looks from teachers. I wrote a paper about marriage and put "one should get married after the bloom of youth" and she wondered what the hell "bloom of youth" was; her having a master's degree. laters kaykay_mp

Doodle,When you were a JW teen, were you allowed to read Madamoselle and Seventeen? I wasn't allowed to read any of the magazines that were marketed toward the "youth" because my parents felt like they were for "worldly teens".
I know you weren't talking to me, but I thought that I'd put in my two-cents-worth: I wasn't even allowed to bring home books from the library. The stupidest thing I got in trouble over was a book called "This Place Has No Atmosphere," a fictional book about a girl who lived on a moon colony. I definitely knew then that my grandfather was a certified nut. I mean, come on! It wasn't like she was kissing boys left and right or anything or talking about mensturation or something. laters kaykay_mp

you try to be inconspicuous while you're sitting on the stage holding your violyn in your lap while everyone else in the orchestra plays the patriotic or holiday songs during a performance.

That was my grandmother's excuse for everything. She made me write it 1000 times as punishment. God, I'm on a roll tonight. laters kaykay_mp

Same here, , that's why I would go to the library and just stay there for hours reading romance novels. I'd rather stay there and read then get caught with them at home *gasp*

LMAO!!! I had the book "Flowers in the Attic" that I had borrowed from another JW friend. My mom found it and made me give it back to her.
