Tell Us About Your JW Father If You Had One.
by new boy in

we are great friends now....but he wasn't much of a father growing up.. worked all the time...we went on few vacations....pretty much pussy whipped my my nazis jw mother.. he never did believe in the whole jw thing.

he just when along with it, for my mothers sake.. she never did respect him for not being a "spiritual head" and pretty much let us kids know about it.. i, like my mother became very self rightious and judgmental.. i wished now he had just came to me just once and said "keith maybe the jws are not the people you think they are.

" but he was to afraid of my mother to say that...even though he knew it to be true.i would have never believed him....back then....but it would have planted a seed.... .

for those who missed the drama, you can check it out here if you wish to www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/140100/1.ashx.

for those who know a little about my past and my mother - she had the nerve to call me today and leave an urgent message for me to call her.

i thought it was about my dad or that something bad had happened since her last comment to me was that i was dead to her, or something to that effect.

hi everybody, my name is julie, and this is my first post.. i'm a third generation jw, or at least i was until a two weeks ago, when i was announced as no longer a jw.

i'm really happy about that, ecstatic in fact, although i'd been a jw all my life, and i'm 37 now.

i could have disassociated like my friends, but i couldn't be bothered to play their chikdish game, so i let them do it for me.
