It is imperative to get legal help if she is getting baptized to protect yourself and children in a medical emergency. You must not leave this in her hands.
What am I supposed to get legal advice about?

basically i asked her why she isn't coming to me to find out my concerns.

I'd be willing to be good money that they won't put that in writing.
I thought of that.

She assured me that if the kids needed a transfusion, and I wasn't there, she would approve it as long is that is what I wanted.

I just told her that I am worried about how this will effect the family. I told her she doesn't ever seem to know the realities of the org, like the whole df of children thing. So a couple of elders are coming by to talk to me about it. Apparantly they are going to assure me that nothing is going to change. I don't know.
Any advice here? What do you think the chances of them agreeing that she should wait until I am more sure about the org. I am not an outright opposer you see. I am open to the idea, I just have to study more. WHich means if I see a burning bush or if the stones cry out I might buy it. So since they don't want to piss me off and lose me as a prospect, what if I asked for her to wait.
If I agree she gets dunked next time. If I don't she still gets dunked next time. It will just give me more time, and let me be more sure about things.
So I say something like, "Right now I feel like I am losing control of my family, and that is causing me to feel negatively about the org."

Don't get me wrong. I like how effective the whole, "tip off the elders" bit. But wouldn't everyone be very suspicous of this. I would have to make it a believable offense, and provide someone other than myself a motive for doing it.
I wish I had some real dirt, but she is squeaky clean.

Calamity,
Yeah I have started to get her non-jw family involved. Her brother said he felt bad, like he was going behind her back. I told him, don't, cuz believe me they go behind mine to undermine everything I do in my family.

That is rough man. I do hate the way I feel like they are always there when I am at work, talking me down, and minimizing the things I say.
I couldn't imagine the feeling of helplessness you must have had being on a float!

"spiritual endangerment"
How do I qualify for that? What would I have to do for her to claim that?

She will be pressured to either get you to join her cult, or divorce you.
I have heard that from a few people, but the vast majority have told me that the only way she can divorce me is if I commit adultery. So how is she going to divorce me.

They won't have time to investigate but they will have to tell her that she's got to wait while they "check it out" (trust me this happened to me and I had to wait!)
That is really interesting. I am not sure if your exact idea would be best, but what other ways could I get the elders to want to "wait"?
