I have an 18 month old and am just now having to discipline. We are doing time outs so far. I don't have it all figured out yet. I just can't understand how you teach your child not to hit others if you hit them. I remember hitting people at school when I was angry because that's what my mom did when she was angry at me. I want to teach self control and be an example of how to keep your temper in check. I don't know how you would do that if you spank. My dad would get angry and then use his belt on me. I don't want my child to see me with that kind of anger.

I know leavingwt for one (and his family in person/ real life). I work with a girl who goes to the Brandon congregation.
I left the congregation I went to in south Mississippi and moved up to this area. I knew a few people who went to the Brandon hall that gave talks at our hall or moved to Brandon from my congregation.

Just owned (and pwned) a Jehovah's Witness website owner! Must Read!
by garbonzo inso i emailed the owner website that sells various jw and creationsit stuff, a guy who is supposedly a jw with these simple words:
why is your website so hard to navigate?
to which he must have taken negatively, and went on the defensive in an instant.

I tried clicking on the "Freebies4u.net" and my work computer complained "Blocked: Sex"
Is that like JW porn or something? ... EEWW

He thought to himself "Didn't Jesus say to do this in rememberance of me??" So he took ANOTHER sip just so they were sure he did it on purpose. AHAHAHA! I loved it! :)

Beware of other religions, as they will highlight our un-bliblical teachings!
by garbonzo inshould you investigate other religions?.
i had attended christian meetings for nearly a year, and i enjoyed telling others about gods kingdom, says miguel, who is now one of jehovahs witnesses in south america.
then i started listening to religious programs on the radio and watching religious preachers on television.

It has been almost SEVEN years (I can't believe it!) since I left the JWs. I am to the point where I don't really even think about it anymore. I have come to terms with my lost family. I still mail them picutures of my baby girl they have never seen, but I can't bring myself to call because the rejection hits to hard. Day to day I deal with it fine just admitting that my life doesn't include those people from my past and it may never include them again.
Then this time of year comes around. I don't morn "not being able to spend it with my family" like most people assume. We didn't spend this time of year together anyway. It just makes me feel different because I don't have these memories of Christmases past like other people. This one little time of year I get those feelings of being "weird" one more time. I'm sorry to the rest of the world, but I DON'T UNDERSTAND THE "MAGIC" ABOUT SANTA!

I hate to see it go away! I enjoyed that convention more than I ever thought possible. It was so healing for me. I met people that will always be dear to me. I wish I could go. I am going to try to convince my mom to go.

My point is God knows the future because he decreed it, not simply because he can see into it.
That's Calvinism.
