i rang family services this afternoon.. the woman i spoke to was very helpful and honest.. firstly i told her i had rung because the person that abused my child had been seen by me pushing a toddler in a pram and by a friend of mine tickling and touching children at the meetings.
i expressed how fearful i am for the children in the congo.. she wanted the pedos name, my name, my kid's name etc.
she asked what he did to my kid and when i told her she said he was an abuser..........no kidding!
Bliss well done.
You have done everything you can.
There are caring parents in some congregations who will warn other parents about child molesters in the congregation. I know I was warned by some about other members of the congregation.
At least the authorities now have it on record. If When the pedo does offend again at least more will be done about it and the childs story will be give a lot more credibility.
((((Bliss)))))
god said at genesis 1:26-27.
26) "let us make man (mankind?
) in our image, according to our likeness... 27) and god proceeded to create the man in his image, in his image he created him; male and female he created them.
I believe in equatily. Total 50/50.
If a marriage or parntnership is going to work then both should have a equal say, otherwise one is always taken for granted and troden on.
I saw many witness marriages where wives just hid behind there husbands because they were just to scared or did not know how to make decisions. My marriage was different, I was good at making decisions, they were not always right, and my husband was hopeles at it and could never take any kind of initiative.
I was accused time after time of not showing subjection to my husband, how can you when ther is no headship.
this is a very special day me and i would like to share it with you all.
it was one year ago today, oleg and i came to the apex of our journey together.
not knowing each other, we put our faith in god and our fantastic doctors at texas transplant institute, and went under the knife that oleg may live a better, longer life.
What a great thing to do Brian. Well dome and congratulations to you both.
how has the internet changed your life?.
ok, i guess if you left the org because of the internet, that is quite a big change.. but what about all the other changes, as to shopping, banking and so on.. what about the fact, you now have not just a photo album, but copies of all your friends photographs as well.. not to mention web cams, which i'm thinking of setting up.. isn't it a revolution in it's own right?, or would you describe it as just a part of the information revolution.
or the pinacle of the information revoltuion?
Main reason I go on line was to keep in contact with family, they live all over the world. I love being able to take photos of my kids and then emailing them imediately to my Dad in england.
I do a lot of research on the internet and all my banking. Found the last three cars i bought on the internet.
Love being here to, although I do waste a lot of time when i should be doing stuff like washing and cleaning.
how's it going with you this fair weekend?
downunder we're having a fine but very cool time.
the news for us is very sobering (the bali bombing convictions, etc), sydney airport's going to have a 500 million dollar re-fit to equip it for the new double decker airbus in 2006 and bethel's very quiet this weekend.. so, what shall we do to pass our time together?
Well you'd have to go out witnessing to place.
Seeing I did no report for years I guess, #7 . Not so important.
i was df'ed for adultry, within 4 mons of 'the act.
' my dad left me mom, lived with a woman for 4 years, then married her.
to this day, he is not df'ed.
I was df'ed for adultryAnd serves you right!
That's a great judgemant to make without knowing all the facts. I was disfellowshipped for the same reasons. I comited aduldery only to get rid of my JDUB husband, with the blessings of many family and friends. Sometimes it's the only way to get rid of emotionally abusive JW spouses.
im on this site reading and putting my comments in when a knock on the door just now..speak of the devil!
two brothers at the door right now.....ok im back...i opened the door in my boxers and let them see my new tattoo on my stomach..i hoped they liked my shorts..they are spiderman boxers...i just told them im busy preaching the word of god on a jw forum...they looked at me very strange and walked away just now...lol..hahahhahahahahaa
Thanks JH, mu six year old was standing behind me when all those boxer shorts came up on screen, now I have to go get him some.
Mother who can't say no to her firstborn.
i finally persuaded my husband to post on the board!
as many of you know he used to be jw aswell.
so here ends my flirting on the board!

i'm rated as ozzy osbourne.
Ozzy for me!
.
as most her know i was df'ed 2 months ago.. i've always intended on being reonstated, not because i believe the crap, but because it just makes thinks easier all round for my kids, 2 and 6, and the family.. does anybody know how i go about this and how long it can take.. don't worry i have full intentions of letting my kids know everything about the borg.. your help would be greatly appreciated.. .
If you used to have good connections, or if your family are some of the heavies in the congregation, they'll reinstate you quickly. When I started attending meetings again I was reinstated in 3 months!
That's me biggest problem, my family are all heavies within the borg, mostly Elders, Ms's or married to one. My grandfather is one of the BIG heavies in the Australian Bethel.
When I was DF'ed the elders told me that it would only take me a few months to become reinstated.
I have no intention of letting my kids miss out on stuff just because of the JW religion.
There father is still a JW so he'll take them to assemblies etc, if they want to go. My trouble is the only family I really care about is my sister, she's just had a baby that's probably whats getting to me. Missing out on seeing her just because I'm DF'ed. I might give it a while longer and see what her stance on the whole thing is.
