  Thanks Min. I didn't know you had a daughter my age! Anyways, at this point there's no way I'm talking to them.

  Thanks Kate. I wouldnt actually move out of state without him. I know he'd go with me. It's something he's wanted anyways and I think it's his JW friends keeping him here right now. They are all rallying around him in "support" even talking about giving him an MS position. He's always wanted the elders approval and now with this "stand" he's taking he's finally gotten that.

  The only thing is though, unless they talk to my kid there really is only 1 witness.

  So, I told hubby that, "I'm moving to where its warmer if I'm disfellowshipped and I'd like him to come with us." He's always known I only live here because of family. What did he think would happen when my family was taken away from me? I know if I move somewhere he'd go with me and I'd probably get a two-family since I'm still intending on moving forward with the divorce.

  His response, "I'm the head of this household and I'll make those decisions."

  I said, "I'm not asking you. I'm telling what I've already made a decision on."

  He said, "I can't raise the kids up as JWs without your parents help."

  I told him, "I guess you should have thought about this before you ratted me out to the elders and took my parents away from me. I hate the cold and if I don't have my family there is no reason to stay. I am thinking about TX, FL or CA."

  Anyways, now he is going to tell the elders they need to drop it and not to bother me. However; I told him it's probably to late because he already told on me. He seems to think otherwise.

  "Have them put the meeting request in writing. Have your lawyer reply. If an elder calls or speaks to you in person, start asking about his finances, when he asks why you want to know, tell him you don't want to wast your time sueing a poor person. They will drop this like a dog turd!"

  Thats a good idea!

  @3rdgen - If they are willing to use my child as a witness against me I highly doubt I'd be able to reason that with them.

  For some reason the elders asked my husband if he ever talked to my dad about the situation. Apparently, he did but my dad was completely unhelpful. Wonder if they are going to drag my dad into this or are even going after him for some reason. I mean, why bring up my dad?

  I laughed when my husband was pushing for to meet with them. I'm like, "I'm not going to be my own 2nd witness." Lol

  Wonder if they would ever try to talk to my 5 year old...
