My niece is 12, my nephew is 9. Apparenly, my niece wants to work toward baptism. :(

your niece's mom wants to atone for her own sins by pushing her daughter to baptism.
On Sunday when they got home, I asked my niece, "So, how was the drama about Timothy?" She asked, "How did you know?" I simply replied, "The Internet." Hopefully that sticks in her mind.
LOL! that's awesome Nos. good job man. you're the uncle they're gonna love.

Well done, Nos!
I have to say that, even though it took a while for me to make my way "out" (in my early 20s), the subtle influence of my loving and very cool non-JW relatives (an aunt & uncle and a great-aunt & great-uncle) helped nourish the seeds of doubt I already had.
They gently encouraged intellectual questioning, independent reading, higher education, development of self-esteem, and enjoyment of life (including holidays).
It definitely helps!!!
