I am really sorry you are going through this too. If you feel the need to do something, you can pray for her. That is all I have found that I can do, and if it brings results someday, great.....but like you said....Nothing else seems to work. ((((((((((((HUGS)))))))))))))

recently, my mom was threatened by the elders to stop associating with me or else.
i guess she feared i was becoming an "apostate".

'I love you'
by Zico inyesterday, i came to the realisation, that nobody has ever said these words to me, least not that i can remember, which was a temporarily devastating moment for me.
this began with my father.
spotting him in front of the tv in his favourite chair, i walked over and came out with the words 'i love you' it felt very weird, because i think it may be the first time i've ever said these words myself, but i'm going to blame my upbringing on this.

That's cute....really. I am glad your sister told you she loved you back, and I am glad you didn't give up!
When I worked as a phone rep once I helped an older lady and before we hung up she said "I love you" (I think out of habit...) but, I said "I love you too..." It only seemed right! LOL!

"Ashley Treatment" keeps severely disabled girl from growing
by Fe2O3Girl inthis news story came out today and i was surprised that we haven't had a lively discussion about it.
it brought to mind some of the ideas we discussed on the "is circumcision child abuse?
" thread.. ashley is now 9 years old.

I have to agree with the parents too...and I think it would be appropriate to do the same type of thing with a male child. If you are mentally remaining child like...I think the body should follow suite. It prevents the person from experienceing things they are not mentally able to handle...In my humble opinion. It is a tough one though.

So what will they do now.....?
by Gill in2014, a hundred years since christ's supposed invisible presence began, has come and gone.
it is now 2018.. you are now 75 years old and the world is packed with free information.
you can find out anything you want to, and infact, you have to use the internet every day just to shop and bank and a lot of the things you need to do.

I feel like when it comes down to that point, all they can do is "hold on to the life they have always known". It would be too scary to face reality at that point and realize what they have accomplished in their lives is just slaving for a cult. How very sad that this is happening.

I think you did such a great job also, as a loving, caring husband. Yoiu are showing her that you are a great man, not just because Jehovah makes you be one. I feel that you are well on your way with helping her to see the way it really is.
My only advise would be not to be wishy washy now that you have come this far. Prove that you have no doubts about your decisions.
Thanks for sharing.....I can't wait to get to know HER someday!!

Living with family who believe that you deserve to die
by jambon1 ini always had a problem with the idea that everyone except jw`s deserves to die at armageddon.
i used to think; "what about all the really nice people?
mrs so and so, my magazine call.

That is the biggest thing that P*sses me off. They think they are so much better than you are no matter what they are "really" like...and they usually like to throw it in your face that you are going to DIE!!!!
I guess I don't deal with it too well....LOL
