Respectfully, thats immaturity talking. As someone who grew up in the cult who is now a parent, i assure you your parents belived it and did their best with what they had, like most parents. Love them and help them if they are so inclined, if not.... Just love them as you would want your kids to love you dispite your imperfections :)

Being lied to by parents
by What is Truth? ini mean pretty much all parents lie to their children at some point about something and usually it was to protect them or just wasn't something important and it normally doesn't affect the relationship between them and their child.
but how does a person reconcile and recover their appreciation for their parents after finding out almost everything they taught them was an evil lie?
i don't mean going back to the same relationship as i know that is gone, especially if the parents are still deceived.

And as any elder can testify, the differance between being DF'd and not is a vote of three of men. Hows that for being arbitrary...... Your eternal life depends on not having pissed off two of the influential people on a JC or them not having a personality conflict with you. -

LOL LOL LOL!!!!! Has the G.B./Org ALREADY left this planet????
by The Searcher inat 10m 20secs of the convention's new video release, the father tells his daughter that she is too young at 17-18 years old to consider dating - because even at 18 years old, her husband wouldn't be mature enough to be her 'spiritual head'!.
i'll bet her father had her baptized when she was "spiritually mature" enough at 10 years of age!
the org's chariot is really being driven out of control by some guys who are heading for a thelma & louise finale - keep this stuff coming, please!!!!.

Well, to barrow logic from mothers of long ago: if person x jumped off a brodge would you follow?
In other words, the fact that your wife got baptised at 15 dosent make it any more smart for someone else. It also dosent make it legal or mean your daughter was smart enough to know what she was doing.... Your point remains valid and on target. At 15 neither you nor your wife would have allowed to marry. The org preaches baptism as even more serious.

17 year old son is blaming me for ruining his life from the Cult. He's complaining "I could have been a high school sports star!"
by PhilsWager2 inyou know about my not-so-ugly divorce and how me and my wife found out the religion is false.
she still attends while my 17 year old has been raging on me about all the wasted time he suffered from by being in this religion.
he think's his life is ruined, very angry we did not learn this was a cult earlier(he was 14 when he stopped attending after reading the revelation book, he said "in all time and history, how could a trumpet blown in revelation have anything to do with a jw bible student convention statement"?.

Nope. I have never had particularly negative experiance with a brother or sister. It takes different things to wake people up. He needs to learn to let it go and live :)
