  JW teens and "scouting" for prom dates? 70's & 80's

  posted this on the "school and jws" brochure, which got buried pretty quickly, but i wanted to see if anyone else remembers this, from the 70's & 80's, so i'll start a new topic on it.. .

  that ("school and jws") brochure put the kibosh on high school proms in the usa.. in our area at least, going to prom was perfectly fine - as long as you went with a fellow jw.

  children of elders, pioneers, etc.

  My birthday is tomorrow. I don't expect a phone call from the parental units.

  I love celebrating the days of my children's births. I remember each birth story and have repeated the stories to each of my kids. How can I not celebrate the day I finally got to see the little one I had fallen in love with?

  Cognac, your baby is acting normal. Don't take her joy away.

  I went to my senior prom in '83. I don't recall seeing that leaflet. If it had come out before prom season I'm amazed no one said anything about it to me. I was living with my jw granda, my jw cousin suggested my asking a jw guy to my prom (he said yes). My jw aunt (mother of my cousin) took me shopping for fabric for my prom dress. And my jw parents came down to see me off to my prom.

  But a year or so later some kids at my hall decided they wanted their own prom since it was now understood that proms were no-nos. I attended. It was fun and, as I look back on it now, kinda sad.

  No. I hated TMS. I refused to join for any significant length of time. I think I did maybe one of two demonstrations (I would not define them as "talks") . Any skill I acquired in public speaking was because of school or in the workplace.

  mcmillan & wife with rock hudson is what i just saw on tv.

  watching rock hudson kiss his wife while smoking a cigarette is pretty funny.

  and he solved a murder case as he lit up another cigarette at some wealthy person's party.....good stuff!.

  I showed Jocelyn all of your comments and she's a tad embarrassed but I know she's pleased by all of the nice comments about her poetry.

  Thank you.
