Say something horrible.............but true about your kids ..............

by vitty in

although, the complaints may be valid and sad.

many posters here have vented about their wicked parents.. i think its time we parents have a post dedicated to saying something horrid about our kids.

it maybe something you have wanted to say about them that was in the past or happening now.

hehe, I borrowed that one from ozzie osborne!

Just recieved this email off my mum

hey all got a text this morning that they had sent me an email opened it straight away, here is there email and my reply.. .

esther,.

we hope this message clarifies some misconceptions you may have.

Well done on your letter of reply to your parents. You planted a seed, and gave them something to think about. Yes even if the UN, 607 etc does not convince them, the very fact of unconditional love is the main issue here. Love with conditions, and they can't even say the word.....As If!

Do they really expect you to hand over your little boy to them for some brainwashing sessions!?!

Keep your chin up Es, you've a lot to be proud about

Good on you Facts. Glad you had a good time.

It's refreshing having fun, and not looking over your shoulder, isn't it!

JoJo's Story...Part Deu

by kittyeatzjdubs in

when we were living in grenada, i developed the bad habit of cutting myself on a regular basis.

it was interesting how i got to that point.

i was doing things that any other normal 13 or 14 year old girl would be doing, having crushes, kissing boys, cussing at school, listening to ''objectional music''....i know now that those were all normal things, but at the time i was sure i was doing wrong and needed to be punished for jehovah to forgive me.

I was a daffodil too.........

The questions were loaded!

I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed -- and gazed -- but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils

The Point of this Site?

by Samael in

jw
friends

forgive me if i sound rude or this question has been answered elsewhere, as i am a neophyte and discovered your site through google in my religious studies.

from reading the various posts it seems that this site serves nothing more than an iconoclastic purpose.

was your experience as jw's so traumatic that now you can but put forth such effort to daemonize the religion?

deeskis

The beauty of this and other xjw sites is that it is not controlled by brainwashing practitioners. Most people who post here are now allowed to question and think for themselves, supporting others along the way.

Ongoing Saga; Privacy Commission, WTS and my attempt to get personal files

by jwfacts in

i posted a while ago that i had asked the aust bethel for my personal records under the privacy act 1988. bethel refused.

i then lodged a complaint with the privacy commission.

bethel signed a stat dec that they are not covered by the privacy act, and so the case was closed.

facts, good'on'ya.

keep the pressure on.............

a freind of mine who doesnt go to meetings and his wife (but the troof has a firm grip on their thinking) were quizing me on why i dont make my way back to the meetings.

well i explained the un thing and quotes website and i have a problem with those things and if it could be sorted out id come back.

at one stage of the conversation it almost got heated (which is understandable as its a touchy subject for anyone who still beleives)

deeskis

Good on you for keeping your cool. "Tall oaks from little acorns grow", keep planting those seeds.
