Man, you got it good!
Try living with a hardcore JW husband that is heavy into all things 'Borg'!
I feel as if I won't be able to take the pressure one more day many a times. You for sure do not understand how very sweet a deal you've got!!!

It feels so nice once we make it home, in a much more relaxed atmosphere. Many a times we go out to eat or for drinks afterwards. Once home, I can even see on my hubby's face as if the weight of the world has been lifted.

By the way, just speaking from what I noticed in the Spanish congs I attend.
The shunning crap goes in one ear and right out the other in the Hispanic JW circles; and so it should across the board. It is a horrible practice.

We Hispanics are very social in nature and very family-oriented. No way a mother is not helping or talking to her kid. No freaking way!

Meetings
by lavendar inmy family member says he only attends two meetings per week.
and only goes out on field service whenever he wants to.
are some halls less strict than others?

The keeping records of preaching hours makes every single JW a liar.
Here is how I count my time: The minute I step out of my house en route to 'service' to the very minute I step foot back in my home returning from 'service'. It amounts to a very nice 'above average' hour count each month. Has to be done this way to keep hubby and others off my back.

Theories on the increasing appearances of the new GB aide?
by Lemonp ini have noticed that younger guy appearing more and more on jw tv and in special talks.
can't remember his name but he is middle aged, greying, but has a business exec look about him.. is this guy the next gen of gb members?
or is he just an aide to help them about etc?

It is only fair that the current GB gets the boot based on their age, just like the gave the boot to the DOs.
It is a good business model, though.

If she has always been a JW and she violated the big no-no of marrying a non-JW, you have nothing to worry about. Yes, in her heart of hearts, she is only going through the motions and is not a true JW in essence.
Welcome!

What Things Did You Not Talk About as a JW?

you could never freely talk about your sex life.

Sex. There is no way all them couples, specially the younger ones, aren't enjoying wonderful oral, anal, freaky sex. No way!
But, hey, see no evil, hear no evil.

How many here gave up having a family for the sake of the "truth"?
by stuckinarut2 inthis is a sensitive topic for many of us i know, but i am wondering how many here actually gave up the idea of having a family "in this system" for the sake of "kingdom activity or service"??.
start the count here with my wife and i.

One of my thoughts for not having kids was that raising children in the end times was not practical. However, I was not very motherly to begin, never was, but definitely the Org's negatives on reproduction when the end is so near was one of the many reasons why we ended up childfree.
I cannot say that being childfree has made me miserable. I rather enjoy much life with just distant nieces and nephews.

Candace Conti - Consequence for Elders
by The Searcher inbodies of elders around the world will soon (tm) receive a nicely worded letter from the christian congregation of jehovah's witnesses, telling them that local elders are now responsible for ensuring that no perverts are allowed to be alone with any children on any kind of witness business, otherwise, the boe will be accountable to the courts - not the org!.
however, if the elders are aware that bro.
& sister oblivious sometimes ask bro.

Any change for the better is welcomed at this time. Surely the Org will find a way not to be shelling out so much cash in lawsuits due to their negligence.
It would be excellent if any abuser, sexual, physical or otherwise would be publicly censured and then a talk would follow that would give all paying attention the reason and heads up to guard themselves from this dangerous individual.
