I know for her it is complicated
by oblivious in"my girlfriend was raised jw she was'nt allowed to use the phone, and was brought up very strict to say the least.
she has a 4 year old daughter, and recently moved back home with her family were she lives in their living room.
she can't call me and our only communication is through emails, when she can sneak to the computer.

What is the worst thing you ever seen done on a Message board?
by free2beme inbesides the obvious cat fights, flame wars and other mundane nonsense that comes up from time to time.
all of which i think can come and go and be put out rather easy with good moderators and this sight seems to do a good job.
what i am talking about, is something so nasty that when you look back at it years later.

The worst behaviors to me are posting of confidential information due to a flame war someone couldn't win. People who attempt to out. Also making an account in the known name of someone's innocent child just to torment the parent of that child. Outers and people who pick on children just plain suck. I don't know how I got this color.

My mother......sheesh!
by ex-nj-jw infor those who missed the drama, you can check it out here if you wish to www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/140100/1.ashx.
for those who know a little about my past and my mother - she had the nerve to call me today and leave an urgent message for me to call her.
i thought it was about my dad or that something bad had happened since her last comment to me was that i was dead to her, or something to that effect.

I just read a great book. I started out getting the book because of being a rock and roll fan. It ended up being about so much more than that. It ended up being a book about overcoming child abuse, forgiveness, and having a great life in spite of a very hard beginning.. It is just an uplifting book. It reminded me that jws don't have the market cornered on crappy childhoods and crazy parents! I think it would resonate with a lot of us here.
Catherine James was the product of beautiful, well-connected Beverly Hills parents who divorced: the father became a transvestite, coming out to James when she was a young adult at Musso & Frank's in Hollywood, as depicted in a wild opening chapter; the mother, Diana, went through a succession of husbands and eventually relinquished caretaking of her daughter to the state.
Having dated Bob Dylan by age 13, James ran away from the Visa Del Mar orphanage to New York and hung out at Andy Warhol's Factory. She met Denny Laine of the Moody Blues, who became an abusive husband and father of her child while she was still in her teens. She shopped on Kings Road in Chelsea and partied with members of the Beatles, the Who and the Rolling Stones, among others. When the marriage didn't work, she took her son back to California and romanced Jackson Browne.
Somehow James makes do with a little help from her friends, finding modeling work, doubling for Diane Keaton and going back to school. Ever cheery, never self-pitying, her memoir is by turns insipid and sweet.

Somehow now, every time I do it Adobe oens up automatically. I don't prefer it. I prefer JASC to open automatically. Anyone have any idea how to remedy this? I have not been able to find any setting to do so. if I can't fix it, I will just delete Adobe Photoshop.

I don't think they do. To them it is protecting the borg at all costs. They believe god wants them to do it.

Bad Dream
by PoppyR in4am in the uk, and i was jolted awake by a dream about my mother dying, she is not in good health.
i felt overwhelmingly sad that if this happens, she will die in sadness over me.
and also very upset because she is my mum and i want her to love me and be interested in my life and that just isn't the case any longer.. i realise i am 'luckier' than some on here because at least she speaks to me.

You can't change them. You can only live your life and do what YOU want. It is on them, it is what they choose.
