  Need Ideas - Parenting Problem/Question

  by exjwshell in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  here's a question to all of you parents out there.... do any of you, especially those who were born and raised as a jw, have trouble parenting your non-jw children?...

  i've been "out" for 18 years and since then have married and had two children.

  i find it incredibly difficult to not parent "witness style".

  Do some WT phrases make you squirm?

  by jeanniebeanz in

  for me it's "the doors of the ark are closing.

  i can never forget as a child, being forced to see the graphic images in the publications showing families, mothers with little babies clinging to a rock and others drowning as the ark floats away.

  fathers shaking their fists at god for destroying their families... it's like some of the little mind control still functioning in there somewhere causing a kneejerk reaction of uneasiness.... are there any others that bug you?.
