Hey there, I apologize for getting your intentions wrong. You love each other and that will help more than anything. Kids who have parents who are in agreement about religion and who've never cheated, still at times resent their parents. It's normal. I hope that as your husband sees the state of the organization and how dark and negative it is, he'll add things up and at least lose his fire for the JWs enough to become inactive again.

After leaving did the feeling go away?

Regret is much healthier than guilt. Regret helps you come to terms with the reality of something. Guilt condemns you.

I was not raised in the jw org, so the feeling did go away. I imagine that could be more of a challenge if you were raised in from conception or a very young age.

my child was again telling me to divorce him last night. i think there is more to it all now than she priginally let on, and i told her we will not just leave we need to talk to him if she is that angry. she didnt want to, i told her i would. so i talked to my husband. i told him she is angry and wants me to divorce him. he is heartbroken. but hopefully this can start some deep thought and repair.
Think about all of the stupid things we'd do if we listened to our kids about adult things. They'd have us taking them on vacation 20 times a year and buying them everything they want and beating up the bully's dad and letting them change schools everytime a teacher made them tow the line. If you are looking for a way out of your marriage, don't let your kids be your excuse. It sounds to me like you want people to give you a green light, using your children as the reason. Divorce will shatter your kids' lives, and yours in ways you can't understand or imagine until you've been there. I'm not saying that divorce is uncalled for sometimes. I am saying it's not the door to an easier, happier life. One day your children will be asking you how you ever listened to them. They will be telling you that you are the adult and you shouldn't have let kids pressure you into making such a profound, life changing decision.

8 days?? That was not a well balanced meal, the bangers and rice. Bathing caps. Phew, glad the 8 days were history by the time I started studying. 4 days was hard enough. We did have some fun, Tim, but mostly the conventions were too hot and quite exhausting.

Eh, we are all dead. We just think we are alive. My family got into a car accident when I was six and everyone of us but my brother David got knocked out. I probably died then. It would explain my bizarre, but fun filled life.

recently i asked that question on another thread and didn't really get ananswer.
cofty made an excellent point that we often hear what it isn't, but that really isn't useful.. so, what is it?

Viv, you may be too young to remember what a broken record sounds like, however, that's what you and this thread sound like. People answer you and you say:

Ohh, you know it's tempting. It's so much more relaxing and fun than getting all snippy.
