Did Your Mom and Dad Tell You " I Love You " Growing Up - and as an Adult?
by flipper inthree simple but very powerful words .
my son and i working together last night on my jobs talked about this very subject.
i told him that although my witness mom was always affectionate , and tells me and my siblings she loves us , my elder father has only told me that he loves me once or twice , if that - my entire life.

Flipper - I never had the benefit of a fathers love because he died when I was only 5 years old. I don't remember my mother being affectionate and she died when I was 15 years old. I have struggled all my life with issues because of not having parental love or guidance. I am sure it affected the way I was with my children although I did my best.

With my son who is a JW I just try to talk with him about everything else a part from the JW's. He knows how I feel and I have told him straight the things that I found out i.e. the UN, false prophecies, paedophile cover-ups etc. You could just change the subject when she says about Armaggedon but still live your life the way you want to.

OK parents, let's have a little chat
by zagor ini was visiting some friends today and what struck me was complete lack of imaginations kids have today.
they get easily bored.
unless there is internet, video games or tv around they dont know how to entertain themselves.

My sons were usually out playing sports with their mates, didn't have a computor but did have a play station. I think it is a good thing to limit the amount of time they spend on TV, computor and video games for the reasons already mentioned.

Most people try to do the best they can most of the time
by Gayle inas a jw we were taught most people are evil, worthy to be destroyed soon by god.
there is evilness in the world unfortunately, but now i think most people are trying their best and trying to improve, work hard and successfully, be honest, take care of their families, etc..

It's people in cults that regard other people as evil. As you say most people just try to do their best.

Regarding "The End Is So Close" Thread
by senora ini just had another take on that thread, so i decided to start a new one.. i've been going to the meetings off and on lately, so for the ones of you who haven't been in a while, you would not believe how much the the borg is constantly repeating that phrase over and over again.
its like they are trying to spook everyone out.
so everyone is constantly saying that phrase over and over, and i mean everyone.

I have heard my DIL saying this a few times lately, so it does seem that the JW's are being indoctrinated with this again - to keep them from thinking of leaving obviously.

Mennonites - Shunning Condemned by Watchtower PDF
by AlphaOmega ini know that this has been mentioned before, but after a chat with a friend about this i decided to scan the article for people to use when chatting with jws.. it certainly has raised some eyebrows with the ones that i have spoken with.. juicy bits include :.
*** w05 9/1 p. 24 mennonites search for bible truth ***.
certain colonies forbid radio, tv, and music.

This is very poignant for me at the moment, thank you Alpha.

What was the "point of no return" for you?
by B_Deserter inwas there a point in leaving the organization where you did something that demonstrated that you had officially made your decision to leave?
for me, i think it's going to be when i vote in the general election this year.
it will be my first action in public against jw doctrine.

A Difficult time...........
by ScoobySnax inhad a bit of a day.
its so very hard trying to justify yourself to all those you love, don't you find that?.
mum has been so good recently towards me about my fella, she keeps a quiet sort of disaproval as its not "in line with the truth" and it's funny, but i do love her still for being that way.

Of course you love your mother and don't want to hurt her and that shows you to be a decent caring human being. As a mother myself there are many things my sons have done that I haven't liked or agreed with, but I shall always love them. It sounds like your mother's main concern is brought on by being a JW so hopefully whatever you decide won't change the way she is with you. I hope not anyway.
