  November Study WT "Train You Child to Love Going Door 2 Door"

  by JW_Rogue in

  been catching up on some jw reading and found a gem in the november study wt in the first article, paragraph #11:.

  yet, you might look beyond the obvious and ask yourself, does my child enjoy the ministry or only the breaks?

  if you discern that the ministry could be more interesting or more rewarding for your children, set goals with them.

  How can a kid be happy dressed in a suit and subject to ridicule from any classmates he meets. This is preposterous.

  How do you overcome SHUNNING after leaving the organization and move on?

  it amazes me how many of you have left it all behind, including family, brothers and sisters, friends and a full network of people.

  i for one cannot find the courage to breakaway, and this causes me great anxiety and stress.

  it eats me alive to think that if i open my mouth everyone i know will simply turn their back on me.

  I have been lonely, sad and terrified since I DA'd in Sept. of 2014. I have also grown as a person and had extended periods of peace. Met many people at my new job and discovered the world is really not so bad people-wise.

  My choice was to be true to my conscience. I will never regret it. Those born-choose in JW's are too much anyway for the most part. The fear goes away in time. Always follow your instinct is my opinion. The path is your own to choose.

  If I win the lottery

  i haven't yet won the state lottery but i purchased a lottery ticket last night.

  if i win the lottery, it's $150 million.. if i win, my name is publicly announced and of course my picture gets into the news.

  i will probably get df'ed.. however, will the wtbts accept a hefty "donation' from my 'lucky' winnings?

  Suicide or Real Freedom? - My Story As One Of Jehovah's Witnesses

  by dubstepped in

  "sometimes i think the only thing i could do that wouldn't upset someone would be to kill myself.".

  those were the frustrated words of my friend as we stood out in his large yard in the country, just about to enjoy a nice bonfire on a beautiful night.

  what was it that could have been a lesser evil than killing himself?

  I noticed he shakes his head back and forth to disagree when he says a statement he knows is not true. He's purposely lying up on the stage. Happened like four or five times. What a piece of @$&(.

  Honestly he looks and acts like a clown. I really think he has serious mental issues.

  He is not in the same reality. Cartoonland is more like it for him.

  A question for the shunned re: hide or seek

  by dubstepped in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  so here's my question as a newly daed person that is summarily shunned.

  do you hide from family and act like you don't exist or do you let them know you're still here and seek them out?

  they want you to be dead, like you no longer exist, because strict avoidance makes it easier on them.

  I don't have family in but DA'd a year ago. Some JW's are such cowards they literally run away from me in my hometown.

  I say do whatever brings you peace on a case by case basis, especially with relatives or former close friends. Personal peace is the main thing. Just my two cents.

  I told the elders in my DA meeting with them a year ago " ...not to mention this overlapping generation doctrine which nobody understands." All I got back were blank looks and no response to my statement.
