I like Desperate Housewives and The Apprentice. They are probably the two programmes i try not to miss at the moment. Other than that, we only have one telly so it's usually got cartoons on or the ps2 games!

Sorry you've had a rough couple of weeks Mr Flipper. They're the ones missing out not us. I know what it's like, i get shunned daily. Doesn't bother me if they're not related but with hubby's family it's another story but i make sure i don't show it! At least the jws who live next door always throw the kids ball back over the fence for them so they are half human!

OCD help?
by coffee_black ini work with a woman who has a 15 year old son who has a very serious case of ocd.
after many months of seaching for help, he is now being treated by one of the foremost psychiatrists in the country who specializes in ocd.
she now has to find a behavioral therapist for him for the next step in his treatment, and is having difficulty getting an appointment...8 month waiting list on average.

They should like facebook. My hubbys brother is a jw and his girlfriend (non jw) answered someone on his page and said they had a sexual relationship, so one of the other jws he added has reported him!Perfect way to spy on the flock!!

If they can shun......so can I
by KAYTEE inlet me first say that i believe in god, in jesus and the holy spirit.
therefore to hear the watchtower liken us who have been df, ( in our case asking questions about u.n. paedophiles 607 etc ) liken us to the first apostate the devil i find them judgmental in the extreme, not surprised but very offensive.. thanks to "flipper" with his thread i have decided to ban my brother in law from coming to my home, this year he intends to come over from spain where the need is great, ............the wine.and the beaches very nice too.. he is going to visit his mother who now because of dementia lives with us.. he will not be allowed on my premises at all, he will pick mum up at the front gate.. as a witness you must accept what the so called boffins tell you.. therefore if he can align himself with thinking that way, of his sister and myself then he is not welcome.. i will only accept him in my home when he gets out of her (babylon the great).

KT only you know the whole situation and your feelings on it all. All you need to do is make sure you are happy with whatever decision you make, so you feel fine with yourself. I think that whether we shun them back or not, it's something we each personally have to decide on, how much we've been affected by it all can determine that outcome. Personally now that i'm nearly 3 yrs old and happy about it if they spoke politely to me first, said hello in passing then i'd say hello back - but when it comes to hubbys step father who is a hideous person and his selfish mother they can get stuffed. You sound too nice to do it back to them tho, sometimes you can feel happy if you are bigger and better than them (even tho it's v hard sometimes!). Good luck with your situation x

Well it's made me feel better anyway - i've always said i'd look great with my own make up artist and fashion stylist, plus someone to airbrush my photos lol. J Lo still looks gorgeous tho without her make up. It's nice to remind ourselves tho that we all look the same without our make up on!

yeah i remember i was stumbled when i went to a jws house and they all got the hot x buns out and ate them in front of me! But i was told these things were fine if eaten after xmas/easter etc as the food had already been sacrificed to idols or something!Cheesed me off tho to think i'd been avoiding one of my favorite foods!
