  i'm quite new to this site, & have realised some members have a union jack symbol under their avatar.

  i've already found several by reading older posts..

  hi all - perhaps a brief intro from me would be appropriate..... i hail from essex, england.

  a 2nd generation witness never knowing any other life and from a large and mostly devout family.

  i was disfellowshipped in 1993 aged 21 and the worldly girl i met, got pregnant and married (in that order) is mother to my 3 grown children and grandmother to our beautiful baby granddaughter.

  i haven't posted here for many months, but have been reading most days.

  The popularity fad of home-schooling!

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i know this has been discussed over the years on this forum, but i just had to post this again!.

  it seems that the popular fad amongst the "spiritual" ones in the local circuits is to home school their children instead of sending them to school.. now to clarify, we are in a very nice area of semi rural australia .

  one with very community minded, and strong family values.

  And then it hit me: we were abused

  by Anders Andersen in

  from a psychcentral (run by mental health professionals): a familiar item on a list of 7 types of parental abuse :.

  spiritual abuse.

  has the child experienced:dichotomous thinking – dividing people into two parts: those who agree with the parent and those who don’t.

  being dragged to meetings--especially mid-week with school next morning.

  forced to sit quietly for 2 hours through a meeting--worse at an assembly.

  being kept out of school assembly--subject to ridicule by other kids

  taken out door knocking--???!!!

  no birthdays

  no xmas

  no blood transfusions

  being taught about evil spirits---demunz---

  being taught about armageddon--an day now--all that death and suffering.

  sweet dreams kids--sleep well.

  I think the CO just knocked on my door.

  i can't be too sure, because i didn't answer, but my mother had called me this morning and said this week is our co visit.. it's been a while since i last had elders at my door.

  last time that happened, i posted about it, so it was only a few months.. i really don't want to talk with them.

  is there a chance i'll be announced as "no longer one of..." after he's left if i don't?.

  What did you regrettably not do because you were a Jehovah's Witness ?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  jehovah's witnesses cannot do a lot of things.

  i remember pioneers having to quit their jobs because they could not work in a convenience store and sell cigarettes.

  i know of a young man who was offered a scholarship to any college or university if he wanted to go to because of his football abilities.

  bonk my born in girlfriend. she was gagging for it. instead--we married far too young---and ended up hating each other a few years later.
