i'm a first time poster and i apologize if this topic has been discussed before.
when i met my wife she was disfellowshiped and were happy, got married, and had a kid.
after we had our daughter she got reinstated so her family and her jw "friends" could spend time with our daughter.
@caves, it's how I kept my kids out of kh but then we didn't split up so it is a different scenario.
Years later, my kids are Christian and know full well that the jw's are a cult. Love their jw dad all the same. Though they were taught unconditional love by me & their faith.

You could let her know that if she insists on bringing kids to kh then you will be bringing kids every other weekend to various faiths of the world. One week will be Catholic, Temple, Hindu, Protestant and so forth....
Do not trust a jw to adhere to any agreement unless it is stipulated by a court of law. In order for a court to recognize that the jw's are in fact harmful to children you will need a good attorney and a child psychologist and possibly a cult expert. This is no joke. Many on this board have lost their children to the borg by trying to be a nice ex spouse and not make things more difficult. Tear that bandaid off and protect your precious child/children now. It's your job as a parent.

Get an attorney willing to learn about jw's and child custody, manipulation, abuses, etc...

the governing body has lovingly provided instructions and reminders to couples that they should pray before having sex.
please be obedient and follow the wise counsel from the gb leaders who never stick their noses into other peoples business and are not creepy cult leaders at all....not!.
"had he not created the first human pair so that they could cohabit, planted in them an attraction for each other and then commanded them to "be fruitful and become many"?
Oh, there are just too many naughty jokes here to be had!

just part of the article.. (cnn)the church of jesus christ of latter-day saints, commonly referred to as the mormon church, responded tuesday to a recently-filed whistleblower complaint that accuses the church of stockpiling $100 billion in accounts intended for charitable works, misleading members and avoiding paying taxes.. .
Would be nice if a reporter dug into the jw's too!
as much as i enjoy you and pete's company, you also know our understanding of how much we want you to be reunited with jehovah and his people.. .
we did not set the standards for what jehovah says about our associations with those who choose to not serve him.
so we will always be there for you and pete, but it is in your hands as to how we can enjoy your friendship.. .
Why is it not 'kind' to say they shun? it's the truth, neither kind or not, simply a fact. jw's like to redefine words they don't like. Like the word 'lie'.
you used to hear christmas music blaring on every radio station.
not anymore.
people used to jam the roadways and malls to do their christmas shopping and now it’s no big deal.
No Abuse, please don't abuse our little red dot/m&m. Chill.
Merry Christmas!
this article has all the trappings of wts apocalyptic theology, doom and destruction for "the world" salvation into paradise for the faithful .a schedule of future events is described thus :.
1) a worldwide proclamation of peace and security.
2) the destruction of "babylon the great"......it confidently names the characters from this visionary biblical reference, without any supporting reasons.. 3)the nations will then , as gog of magog , attack the wts and the members .
Contrast that message to the message most churches are doing this time of year- peace, goodwill to all, be generous with those less fortunate than yourself, volunteer, hope, importance of family, be joyful and so forth.
i was reading today that the last star wars movie will be playing next week.
doing a little searching, i found that there have been 12 movies in the saga total, ( box office, total (12 films): $9.323 billion.)..
it got me thinking about when the empire strikes back came out, it was the second movie ( 1980).
Ding,
hello forum.
my aunt, flyinghighnow, has passed away.
i don't know if you remember her, but she was a long time member.
I remember her, she was always so helpful.
My deepest sympathies.
