No, that would detract attention and manpower away from the operation. Could you imagine a parent at Bethel constantly leaving their post to go check on their kid? The slaves at Bethel need to eat drink and sleep for Bethel otherwise they are shown the door.

Can't have kids while working at Bethel? This is like Anti-family right?
by NotaNess ini found out about this a couple years ago.
it was one of those shockers, that is just hard to accept when you hear about it, when you're not in the "truth".. i posed the question, "why can't they just have a daycare system setup.
seems that would be a standard setup", but one witness from bethel told me "cause it's not the responsibility of the organization to raise our kids".

Can one man be an Island? Bumping into old workmates - awkward

some might call what i do anti-social.

In my opinion the Simpsons is one of the greatest series of all time. To create two jokes in one, where adults can understand what the kids can't yet everybody still laughs, is a genius science. There have been so many funny moments, but who could forget Homer doing the daredevil stunt instead of Bart, and the ambulance crash which sent him back down the cliff !

Welcome Aussie, welcome to our board.
Well, you are amongst friends now.
You are obviously a stronger person than your boyfriend for resisting the Watchtower Society and their false promises. Of course the Witnesses would say that you will grow to understand them, because once your mind becomes indoctrinated with all the images of fire coming out of the sky and people dying on Judgment day because they are not Jehovah's Witnesses, an in-built survival mechanism will click on inside you without you even knowing it. These cult leaders are not stupid. They have had many years of perfecting mind control, and they know that a frightened mind is a suggestible mind.
Did you say that your boyfriend was raised a Witness? If this is so, then those images would have been so deeply ingrained into his mind that he will constantly recall them for the rest of his life. Obviously it happens to older people, but those who were raised as Witnesses clearly feel this more strongly - and those who were not raised in it can often escape. Since I was raised a JW, although I have not been for a few years, even today I have nightmares about Armageddon.
The fact is that your boyfriend is so far down the line now and has lapped up all the excuses that Witnesses give out about people who oppose them. But you have obviously broken this mold before it has managed to set, so congratulations on that. If you want my advice Aussie, I know this sounds very harsh and you obviously love him, but you must leave him and get out while you can. The Witnesses make robots of people who are consumers and advertisers of their product, and this is why your boyfriend has changed. He has shown a clear disregard for you by giving you that ultimatum. If he really loved you, why would he do that to you? Ask yourself, do you really want to spend the rest of your life with this guy? Take it from me and the people on here, a divided household where one is a Witness and the other is not just paves the way for disaster. I have been there done that, seen it happen.
Listen to your parents. Your parents have raised you, they love you more than anybody else in this whole world. Without them, you would not be possible. They know you more than anyone else. It seems such a foreign concept, to ditch somebody you love since it seems at the moment that he is the only one. But your parents are showing you these dangers, and they are using their own experience because they want what is best for their daughter.
Please understand that these are not the words of somebody just intent on destroying future followers of the WT. I have just seen it before, I know your road and have been down it.
I am always here so PM me at any time if you so wish, and good luck in your life.
