It gets really frustrating with our elderly parents, when it reaches the point they shouldn't be doing some of these Witlessing activities, but won't slow down. Now, here we are with summer conventions, and they feel obligated to faithfully attend. Here go mine, driving into a big city every day, in heavy traffic, when Dad's driving is getting scary What a worry! He recently passed out just after arriving at the Kinkdumb Hall. If that had happened a few minutes sooner, I have no doubt both he and Mom would be dead. But, hey, they won't hear a word of it.

Help! My "devout" JW's mom is "pioneering" at age 76 on a cane.
by booker-t inposters i have tried "everything" to show my mom that the wts is full of beans but she just won't budge.
i have heard through some non-jw's relatives that my mom who is 76 years old and having alot of problems with her knee is pioneering.
i am so worried about her standing in front of the donut shop or supermarket at 6:00 am.

Just my opinion, but... if you go, they'll ask you a lot of nosy questions, and pry into your personal business. Why would a grown man of thirty let these guys disrespect him like that? Will your fiance appreciate their intrusion into your privacy?
Glad you came to the board. Whatever you decide, I wish you the best, and hope you stay awhile!

Called JR Brown regarding Cano Pedophile situation
by LDH injust called their media line:.
http://www.jw-media.org/contact.htm.
asked a young man named bryce where is the official press release on the cano pedophile situation.
-
Virgochik
Wow, LDH, you go, girl! I bet there are no reports in his congregation files because they didn't put them there! Doesn't mean they didn't get lots of complaints they just ignored. I hope interviews are done at all the Halls he had contact with. If quite a group of kids came forward, imagine the lawsuit!
Alright, I imagine you can't wait to take a shower, after all that crappola that was thrown your way.
Poor Browny, he'll be a bizzy guy for awhile!

"All our reports show he was good
at deceiving parents to trust him with their little boys, he was serving faithfully. All those other reports, well, there were just never two witnesses to anything, so they must've been lies, all lies. You can dig around in the congregation files, but none of that is true." -

This is wonderful timing! This hit the news right before the Bloomington, Illinois district convention this weekend! Since this is news in the Chicago area, maybe the public will take a good hard look at who's swarming into their community for this convention! Hope it's very embarassing for them.

About the convention in Illinois Thurs-Sun--I have questions!!!!
by whyizit ini am from indiana and my jw wanna-be friend is going to a convention on thurs.-sun.
in illinois.
i wondered what this convention will be about and if anyone else will be attending?
-
Virgochik
I would be interested in details about the convention, if anybody hears about it. This is the one my parents are going to. I thought they meant Bloomington Indiana, but must be Illinois, since they said it's this weekend. They go to Romeoville for the circuit ass-emblies. I suppose they'll be driving in from Indiana every day, and they don't need to be doing that; they're elderly people!

Cab, that's a horrible situation, him almost acting married to that witchy sister and not to you! How can he disrespect his wife like that? Like many posters advised me awhile back, tell him, if he won't travel with you, you'll go without him! Worked wonders on my husband, when he saw the determined set of my jaw. We are booking our flight to Scotland for September!
But a short roadtrip won't really fix what's wrong. You're still a spring chicken. Do you want to grow old and bitter with this man and his sidekick, Lori? Could you make it on your own?
