I agree. No legal representation...no meeting. Any decision or announcement without proof needs to go to my attorney in writing. They won't do it. Their rules, their game. I don't play by their rules or play their game.

Has anybody experienced a judicial committee in a private venue?
by Chook ini think getting them to agree to a private place would give you an edge (even if the egde of their sword closer to home).
if i'm ever hauled before their kangaroo court i will only go on one of three conditions .1 non jw venue .2 with legal representation .
3 the recording of proceedings.

I'm giving up in 2017! (More steps in my fading)
by Skepsis inwhen i joined this site at the beginning of this year, i was serving as an uber-zealous regular pioneer and ms in a foreign congregation where the need is greater.
i was giving public talks and having parts at regional conventions.
had started to have doubts but i hadn't time to focus on them, i simply was overcharged with so many activities and things to do.. i started by quitting pioneering but couldn't think i would give further steps for a long time.

It's good you know the reality of leaving. We have had some discussions with some who are totally shocked that no one will have anything to do with them after they leave.
You seem to really have your head on straight. Keep us posted.

by Chook ini honestly believe he has memory difficulties, him and mr letts iq is not much greater than a rabbit.

He mumbles and rambles when he speaks. He's very difficult to understand.

Good for you. It's weird at first but you will settle in and realize how much time WT took from you.
My spouse and I had to come to terms that we were going to loose "friends." We have. We knew we could possibly loose family. We have to a certain extent. As long as you realize these things will happen, you will be ok. Like someone mentioned, go join some things of interest and branch out and meet people.
Hang in there!

Bottom line... we all have to do what is right for US. Just like each child in a large family can be totally opposite of the others, even though they have the same DNA. We have 2 children. One is attending college and loves it, the other has no interest in college but has pursued a very vital career in society. She absolutely loves her job and can't imagine doing anything else. She doesn't make a lot of money but is happy, healthy and kind. The one pursuing college is also happy, healthy and kind. What more could a parent want? We are equally proud of both of them.

LonghairGal And Phoebe
Great posts. Spot on.
We have family members who are still in and treated poorly but they are in a service industry. If the JW's can get the service for free or at a discount, they show up in an instant.
Phoebe....so glad your kids are educated and doing well.
I agree with LHG, I think JW's are jealous of the JW's who are getting educated.

2005 and their message hasn't changed. How many people have chosen not to attend college and are paying the price financially? It doesn't seem to hit some until they are in their 60's and 70's, when it is too late to recover what you have lost. We are seeing this in our family at this very moment.

I had a "friend" who is a still in JW tell me the org is not telling people not to attend college. It's amazing how much most just can't or won't see it. An Elder told us that he called the branch to ask if it was ok to send his kid to college. They told him it was a personal decision. That IS NOT what this talk is conveying. This is an al carte organization, pick and choose what you want. What a load of BS.

Are You Raising An Introvert?
by darth frosty inits not easy being an introvert in an extrovert worldespecially when youre a kid.
it is even more difficult if none of the adults in the kids life recognize that the child is an introvert.
this doesnt happen only when the childs parents are extroverts, but also with introverted parents who have never understood their own introverted nature.. .
