  disfellowshipped family and friend being reinstated

  by Together in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  new to the forums and looking for someone who may have had a similar experience.

  i have been disfellowshipped going on 30 years now.

  within those thirty years i have built myself a life and slowly learned to cope with the shunning from family and friends.

  hello Together--welcome to the site.

  i quit the cult over 40 years ago--and over the course of time all 3 of my kids shunned me. 2 still do. however about 7 years ago i found out my older son had been d/f'd--and i found him through facebook. gradually we built an online relationship. he remarried--i was at his wedding--now he has a son--over a year old now. i visit them periodically--in fact--first sunday in august is the next time.

  his own mother--my first wife..shuns him completely--so do his siblings--so really--i'm the only person in his family left.

  it was through the discovery of him being d/f that led me to getting involved with all this online ex jw thing---before that i had no idea it existed. reading stories like yours--and countless others--just reinforces my belief that jehovahs witnesses is just a sad little lunatic fringe cult.

  Kids continue to leave in droves - so what is the organization's grand plan? This

  jws have one of the worst, if not the worst, retention rates among their kids.

  i've seen numbers from 65% to 88% who leave, never to return.. you'd think this would be a priority amongst the leadership, right?

  where do tomorrow's leaders come from, if the vast majority of kids leave the organization?
