do these things including the sending of convicted pedophiles door-to-door upset you too?

imagine, for every revealing article that hits the paper there may be ninety-nine that stay untold.

i find it extremely amusing how each year is passing without armageddon.

"for the year 2000, i visualize a world transformed into a beautiful paradise!

but i don't think that either the present world or its rulers will live to see that day.. we are living in the last days of the system of things.

ARE YOU UPSET THAT YOU DIDN"T GO TO COLLEGE?
by minimus in
1. jw
2. friends
i have read of some people's bitterness because they were denied the opportunity to go to college.

during the 60's and 70's the society really discouraged any education other than what was necessary.

since the end was so near, especially around 1975, anybody that decided to go to "higher education" was considered very weak and unbalanced.

The Effects of Child Abuse
by Xandria in
1. watchtower
2. child-abuse
being abused and/or neglected as a child are not the only painful and potentially damaging experiences that human beings may suffer in childhood.

whether or not, and to what extent child abuse and neglect (or other painful experiences) have negative effects depends on a variety of factors - related to the abuse itself, but also to relationships, in which the abuse and the child's responses occur.

child abuse, in itself, does not "doom" people to lives of horrible suffering.

I have to brag about my kid.

so we got fed up with all of our educational opportunities for him.

the public school couldn't do its job, and we fought all last year with the administration of the private school because their dress code was stupid.

(i came very close to telling the vice principal that one solution to the problem would be for her to take the stick out of her ass).. so this fall we sent him to ged classes.
