  Do you hide you JW family's practice of shunning from non-JW family?

  i thought of this question as i've been talking to different family members about the situation with my parents and grandmother.

  i wondered if they'd get upset by me telling other non-jw family members what was going on.

  i recently told a family member in coventry who i'm sure will end up telling my grandmother's sisters.

  My daughter and her grandparents

  since i talked to my father after my disfellowshipping and he hung up on me, i haven't talked to my mom or dad.

  last month when we were in ontario i talked to my uncle and aunts about how my parents are treating us (shunning) and we got a lot of support from them, and they can't understand why my mom and dad would treat us like that.

  anyway, my 7 year old daughter overheard the conversations, even though i was trying to keep the situation away from her as i don't think a child really needs to know all the details of the situation.. on the drive home out of the blue my daughter says she wants to call my parents, so we ask why?

  We are in the same type of situation with our seven year old son,only he has no knowledge as to why his dfd' family have nothin to do with us.His gandfather has seen him once,The rest of my husband's siblings here in otttawa shun us,I will wait till he is close to adulthood to explain the situation to him so not to harm him emotionally,he is very much loved by all of my family and lots of friends.UNCONDITIONALLY!The really sick thing is that the cult actually teach their seven year old's and younger,to shun people and that is probably more harmful to the children than anything!
