  Kingdom Hall Spankings

  by JH in

  most meetings i went to, children were brought to the washrooms in the back to be disciplined.

  often i could hear a child yell or cry due to the spanking given by the parent.

  people in the hall would have that look on their face meaning that it was alright to discipline a child by spanking him.

  are you still the same basic person that you were when you were a witness.

  if you were idealstic, then, are you still now?

  if you were a pessimist, are you an optimist, now?

  Mind Control Techniques and Jehovah's Witnesses

  by Lady Lee in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  most of the original research on mind control comes from studies done not on religious groups but rather on chinese re-education techniques used on dissident chinese and political prisoners during the 1950s.

  robert j. lifton wrote "thought reform and the psychology of totalism" (1961; new york: w. w. norton).

  he was studying the process and effects of mind control techniques on individuals.

  Emotional Abuse -what it does to children..!!!!!!

  by Jang in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  emotional abuse is the systematic diminishment of another.

  it may be intentional or subconscious (or both), but it is always a. course of conduct, not a single event.

  it is designed to reduce a child's self-concept to the point where the victim considers.
