just bumping the thread as I need alot of help with this.
All you Aussies can you please help.
i have been lurking for quite a few months.
i have been trying to get up enough nerve to tell you my whole story but am finding it painful and scary to write about.
so here's the shorter version until i get brave enough to spill all the details.
Hi evita and welcome.
Very sad to hear your story, my thought are with you as you try and deal with your loss. Unfortunately the organisation makes it very hard for us to remain close to family members.
Just remember we are all hear for you and are glad you have shared your pain and story with us.
Lehaa.
would you let your kids stay over at his house?
in his bed?
Personally I have no idea whether he is innocent or guilty.
My 7 year old son has no idea what is going on in the media so i find his reaction to Michael Jackson interesting. We have a few of his music DVD's and watch them from time to time. My son likes to watch them, but I can see he is uneasy about some of the things that MJ does in them, eg. the whole crotch grabbing thing. He can tell that there is something about him that is just not right, and has no desire whatsoever to meet the guy.
So if my 7 year old son can see that this guy is weird then I would go with my son's gut feeling and say no, I would not even want my son in the same room as the guy.
i have great news.

Thanks Ohio.
I'll definatley let them know all about the shunning problem. My own experience is terrible. How my JW family supports my abusive ex husband and ingnores my requests for help to deal with the abuse. The whole thing sucks, considering I had to take out a restraining order and move out of my house to get him to leave me alone. He's even had criminal charges brought againts him because of it all and the organisation continues to support him, even saying he had an excuse and called it righteous anger.
How double standard is that.
