  we rarely go.

  but, we went because hubby wanted to tell the elders we are switching halls.. at first, i thought to myself that i would go out back with her when she gets fussy.

  but, my baby doesn't really get fussy a lot so i just took her out back and played with her as she laughed hysterically.

  are you saying you werent allowed out the back to play with your babies? or they were making you feel uncomfortable in doing that?

  I guess you didn't grow up as a JW? Or, maybe your parents just weren't to strict? lol, anyways, in most halls I've been to it's VERY uncomfortable if you have a loud kid and I did feel the pressure! I have family members who have gotten spoken to about there loud kids and I got a shepparding call when my kid was about 2 months old all about discipline at the meetings... They weren't telling me to discipline at that age, but they said for the future. I guess it was to help prevent problems? But they said the meetings are not for play time but it's for learning about Jehovah, bla, bla, bla...

Even the Elders came over to just watch her laugh and nobody complained about my being loud. I guess they couldn't help themselves with a laughing baby!

  My hubby was an attendant. (I don't know why, we have barely been there. I guess they haven't noticed? ) He just stopped doing his job to hold his baby for a bit and talk sweet nothings to her!

  I must say, it was great being out back playing with my baby! We even went outside and took a walk! It's really great not feeling guilty for being able to really enjoy your baby during the meeting and not have listen to a cult.

  Toxic Family - Why Are You So Selfish?

  by shamus100 in

  it never ceases to amaze me how many people are succumbing to low-self esteem by allowing toxic family members dictate their lives, and sit by like sheepish puppy-dogs while they get berated and told that they are basically crowfood shit.

  "oh, i'm just trying to keep the peace", some may say.

  i say you need to go on the offensive.

  I was just thinking about that... I've been around preachy JWs lately and hadn't figure out a way to deal with the annoying, self-righteous preachiness... Thanks for posting!

  Getting excited over a cults view of "womens rights" seems a tad silly.

  You look a tad silly! But don't worry, I still think monkey's are cute!
