Obituaries...
by jeanniebeanz in.
here's a nice little side benefit of being raised a jw then leaving; having to search the obituaries of the local paper once a month hoping that your dad's name does not turn up.
it's doubtful that any of my "family" would even let me know, so, i know it's morbid, but i look in the local paper each month and hope that i don't see his name.... j

I'm sorry. That's just sad and makes me sick. Treatment like that can never be justified.

Being a JW mother, I really don't understand how these women do it.
by Dragonlady76 inwhile reading through some threads, i sometimes wonder what my life would have been like if i had stayed a jw and had kids.
i now have a 23 month old son, that's very active, i can not begin to imagine what torture it would be for both of us to attend meetings or go out in field service.
i would be expected to keep him still the whole time without toys, snacks, books or any sort of distraction at all, except maybe the my book of bible stories.

Jul 5, 2005 When I decided to leave I remember telling my mom that "this religion only works for people who have both the husband and wife in same belief and that it doesn't work for people like us."
I grew to feel the same way.
I doubt many even had time to eat before the meeting.
We didn't. Can't count how many times my kids were hungry on top of everything else.

I hated not being able to let my babies be babies. I was encouraged to take them to the bathroom or hallway and spank them because they didn't want to act like statues. Makes me feel like crap when I think about it. No one tells me how to raise my own kids, but I listened to them during that time. I always felt like I could never do enough to serve them. I've always worked full time and as we know, being a parent is a full time job on top of that.
Not to mention the snotty attitudes from high and mighty bitches who implied that I should have my kids completely under control with no problems during the meeting ("train them!"). And if I didn't, I felt the auora of, "well, we're waiting for the new system to have children" was lingering most of the time.
I would cry trying to rush out and be on time, cry at the kh because they wouldn't
behavebe statues, and finally, once I got home, I was a hysterical mess in bed for the rest of the afternoon. After all, I wasn't baptized, so we were doomed since Armegeddon could happen any second.I know one thing....a huge weight was lifted after I stopped attending the kh.
