  Hey angel, Nice to see you here!

  I know sometimes people here get a little anal about spelling, though its usually when they are in a heated argument and have no other points or are loosing. Also, sometimes, trolls come here and spell incorrectly tying to look like a kid when the are really probably 40 years old. This puts some pople on guard. Sorry your feelings were hurt, but I can promise you that 95% of the people here are very, very nice.

  I have a niece who has a learning dissabilty, and she spells phonetacally as you do at times. Sorry about your family loss, it's great you have a nice foster family!

  Hope to hear from you soon.

  i am a long time lurker who has come out of the closet.

  i have read many fine posts here and feel for all of you who have been hurt by the witnesses.

  they are a lying, unaccountable organization - with an emphasis on the word unaccountable!

  ...into my own past which i never knew.

  yes, i have just arrived in north east america, and in about an hour and half i will meet my great-aunt, my mother's aunt, who knew my mother well.

  she broke the news to my mother, just 8 days after i was born, that her own mother (my mother's mother) had died.

She broke the news to my mother, just 8 days after I was born, that her own mother (my mother's mother) had died. She was spending a lot of time with my mother and me when my father abducted me the first time, when I was about 6 months old.

  I understand she has an enormous collection of family photos, documents and letters which I will be allowed to scan. As well, she says she will sit for me as I video her as she discusses my mother and other family stories.

  As most of you know, I reunited with my grandfather last December after 40 years.

  The story continues.

  Thanks to all of you who have been there for me as I have navigated this bitter sweet year.

  why would the PO actually scream at the girl during at commitee meeting?

  Have you ever been in one(CM)? I've been in meetings in the back room and yelled at more than once! And, yes, once by the PO! Don't get me started. That's the reason I finally got out. Thanks guys!

  when i looked up the un website & found the wt as a ngo i told my wife.

  she implied that it was an apostate site.

  i told her 'i typed in united nations' , how are apostates going to hijack the un site?.

  after seeing all the new people from wisconsin today i decided to come out of my lurker mode.

  i have been practically obsessed with this board since i discovered it, and i give everyone here credit for helping my husband and i leave the borg.

  i had been in 11 years, and my husband 27 years, along with our 3 small children.

  taking care of my elderly JW mother

  2. experiences

  after lurking around this and other forums, i decided to add my personal experience.

  first i was raised in the so called "truth" i was forced to attend meeting in the 60's when i was a teen and i later quit going to the kh in the early 70's, when i graduated from high school and left my parents house.

  in the 90's i started a book study with a really nice jw sister and attended several jw meeting, conventions and memorials, i was ready to get baitized, but i decided not to go through with it.

  desbah,

  Wow what a story. I'm glad you've had some family through the years and your children had a great life.

  Waiting for your next post!
