  https://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/wp20120201/adolescent-questions-faith/.

  this article doesn't touch on the topic of what a parent shoud do if their teenager has made an educated decision to stop attending meetings.

  but, hey...what else do you expect from the watchtower coporation?.

  Oh wow!

  Amazing.

  Yet another example of a Bait and Switch method of answering the "topic".

  As you rightly pointed out, the society fails to address the REAL issue why most leave : That IT IS simply NOT the Truth!

  Can we talk confidentially?

  by wheelwithinwheel in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the lot video shows what most elder’s offices are like.

  actually it a pretty well-equipped one and with the video context is, without a doubt, org-approved.

  but let’s face it.

  Confidentiality amongst Elders? Hahahahahaha........

  Elders and their families are often the biggest cause of unbridled gossip.

  Sister elder finds out something, and says to her friend while out in service "shh... I shouldn't say anything, BUT because you're a good friend, I can share this...."

  yep...that's how it goes....

  Once again, this society video showed it was the WOMAN caused the distresses to the family.

  How come the video doesn't show how weak and insipid the husband was? His failure to provide enough income made the wife feel the need to work.

  So really It is HIS fault....

  What Kind Of Psychological Conseling Do You Think Jehovah's Witnesses Need When They Find Out It's Not The Truth?

  by Brokeback Watchtower in

  i personally would like to see they get the very best but haven't a clue how to do it what are your benevolent words of wisdom, should a person do a deep research on his own a kind of self medication or should they brush up on some psychology,, who should they trust because after you leave you got big trust issues.. i don't know about you but to me it was a real shocker, i was totally into getting their worthless bull shit out of my head.

  i choose the self medicate path and did as must research as time would allow,, science was a biggie for me, it was enjoyable learning to get so much bull shit out of my head..

  Oh and also, simply being assisted to see that this life is ALL WE HAVE, and therefore rather than just biding time awaiting some future promised utopian make believe world, we need to value each and every day we have.

  Make your life count now!

  I agree that communities like this amazing forum are absolute life savers during and after the awakening period.

  It truly is "an interchange of encouragement" (see what I did there😉)

  Also, seeing a good counsellor who specialises in helping people who are escaping high control situations is priceless..

  These steps help us to see that we are NOT ALONE.

  Told My Parents Yesterday That I Don't Want to Be a JW

  by Saethydd in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i wasn't entirely sure what to expect when i made the decision to tell my parents how i really feel, but i was prepared for the worst, fortunately, it didn't come to that.

  after i told them i didn't want to go to the meetings anymore it led to a long talk with them.

  they made a number of irksome and woefully uninformed statements but at least they were not aggressive and have said that they won't force me to move out over this, though, i can tell they are hoping they can convince me to "accept the truth," as long as i still live with them.

  Yes, this video is yet another shockingly disturbing proof that the GB have lost their minds!

  Like children with a new toy, they are obsessed with using their video technology- BUT have not thought it through before doing so....

  Jehovah /Yahweh which is it ? or something else yet to be revealed.

  by smiddy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if jehovahs witnesses are using the wrong name of god "jehovah" how would that affect your worship ?.

  2. if yahweh is the more correct name of god of the bible how does that affect your worship ?.

  3.jehovahs witnesses put great emphasis on gods name ,sanctifying it treating it as "holy" and that jehovahs witnesses are to make it known in all the earth .

  As G Jackson said in a recent broadcast, we don't exactly know what the correct pronunciation is!

  So witnesses have had it wrong for decades!

  we all know that as witnesses, we were constantly told to read the bible, and ask ourselves what the passage we read reveals about god.. as an example, here is a wt that highlights this.. may 2016 wt study edition "benefit fully from jehovah's provisions".

  8 ask questions.
