yeh, he's stopped now
i love being here as i said, folks like yourself with similar life experiences. i'd sooner be in a room full of people that understood me than all feel sorry for me.
i don't remember sharing my story...if i did, don't reply.
it will only encourage me .
its been a strange 17 years (18 in october whoo!).

i remember when mum first started going (for the second time).
she was disfellowshipped, thus no one would talk to her or me if i was with her.
i kinda felt cut off too.
well some became instant friends, some never really said much or anything. the problem was because she got pregnant with me, that she was disfellowshipped. my stepdad spoke to her while she was disfellowshipped and when she said he wasn't meant to talk to her, he said its ok because he isn't baptized. i saw him get baptized, and i know he's aiming to be a M.S but my mum and others are aware of how he treated me and even his last wife.
i do not agree with your reading of "policy".
i base this on personal experience on a couple of fronts.
1. i have yet to come across a single verifiable of a cover up.
beep ", your welcome to your opinion about richie and this book and even free to share them but i think for a 17 year old lad, he could be doing worse things than steal from a cult that is ran from contributions. he isn't a bad person and he obtained what many will never see. personally i don't think he should of took it but in that same situation i would of took it. Not because i am thief but because of what this lying ORG means and stands for.
close your eyes.....and go back in time.... before the internet and dvd's.
before semi-automatic machine guns, joyriders and crack .... before xbox, ps3 or nintendo ds...way back.... .
i'm talking about hide and seek in the park.
Crazy as it sounds, i remember some of these things. we didn't have much money at one point (neither did anyone living where we were) and we had no TV license, Radio was boring. Even up to a couple of years ago, i saw an hour of TV a week cos it was just not interesting. My first PC was in 2000 lol.
Playing man-hunt and beat the letter (or alphabeat) and stuff like that.
When i was much younger, our milkman brought all the drinks like coke e.t.c and they were in glass bottles! The clown and girl on the TV and that annoying sound with them lol.

oh that's cool, most dubs run a mile
there was an old man from austrailia (he's gone back there now, might even be dead) called albert. He would always offer us kids mints in the bathroom, desperate for a chat. i spoke to him a few times. Poor man, he was just being ignored by folks.
i had an idea that i could build a uk map of everyones location which would show you instantly who is in your area from jwd.. (it might be an idea to do a seperate us one aswell but i'll wait and see if this one takes off first, or if anyone from the us wants to volunteer to do that one).
(and australia but you are all in the same backyard anyway - literally!!!).
anyway, all you have to do is post or email me your username and town and i will draw you on the map above which will change gradually to include everyone!.
me, manchester!
i don't know if i could've 15 years ago because of having nowhere else to go, but now i know i couldn't stay.
what about you??
?
well to be fair the internet does help, but only after you have doubts. for me other factors made me leave and only later i was happy to find i wasn't alone.

i notice a lot of people on here refer to witnesses ad dubs or say they are exjdubs.
i was wondering what that means.
dub is short for W

i remember once mum went in the bathroom fairly upset (we lived alone at that time) and this elder took me outside and said "you've upset your mother" but i know for a fact i didn't or at least i hoped i hadn't, she was suffering depression and couldn't cope. man i won't forget that...
