my husband was recently subjected to an intervention by his parents.
i am apparently a danger to his spirituality.
after i stopped attending meetings and went apostate hubby decided to resign as a ms to spend more time with me.
When I woke up I gave my husband time to find out what he would do. He took two weeks and then told me he was finished with the religion. He was a very active elder at the time. It was a shock but I knew he loved me more than the religion.
Go slow, respect what he said and be happy around him.
i'm quite new to this site, & have realised some members have a union jack symbol under their avatar.
i don't.. could we have a "show of hands" from any uk members?
i've already found several by reading older posts..

hello and excuse my not perfect knowledge of english.
when i've started studying the bible when i was 13 one of the first subjects i was teached was about genesis.
the first two humans were supposedly perfect which by bible's means it meant that they couldn't die nor get ill. this meant that at least humans couldn't get diseases.

hope this is the right place for it but.... wondering if there are people i used to know who are out these days.... i was in the derby peartree cong, and the derby littleover cong.
left in the early-mid 00s.
dad was known all over the place..
looking for a way to stick two fingers up to the watchtower and do something useful?.
well, ever considered giving blood?
if you're eligible to do so i would encourage everyone here to go for it, the world needs more blood donors, it's always nice to help out and given our history i find there's something very enjoyable about it.
Years ago when I was still in the Jw's I signed an organ donor card, even my easy going husband raised his eyebrows. I told him it was my business and if I was prepared to accept a donor organ to save my life the least I could do was to reciprocate with mine if I die. Last weekend I signed up for a blood donor program and should hear from them soon as to when I can donate. Feels good.

2015, questions and answers!.
.. these are some of the questions we have received and the answers to those questions.. .. 1. what happened a few months back when atlantis had to disappear.. .. answer: it wasn't so much that atlantis had to disappear.
it was that atlantis had to take a break due to a serious family situation.
That hair is so beautiful.....
my parents were always of the belief that, "the end is right around the corner".. i was a zealous kid, with a learning disorder, so my parents never gave me a hard time or pushed me in regards to my education.. this not only hurt me, but, pissed me off insanely.
fast forward to me having my own kid.
ava is not doing well in school.
How wonderful that you are so concerned for your little girl. Your love and care for her shines through and you do not want her to be at a disadvantage with a learning problem. I would suggest though that you have a proper evaluation of where the problem lies. Get an expert opinion, do not just go on your own observation.
My daughter had learning problems and I wish we had sought help sooner. The main areas of concern were in coordination, left, right etc. All related back to difficult birth with poor functioning placenta. She could not manage more than one instruction at a time and having a mess around her could send her into a meltdown as she could not see an end to the mess. Even today at 29 she processes things in a different way than most people but she is successful and a parent herself now.
Try not to make her feel she has to please you to do well, that is a fast track to low self confidence in the long run.
All the best to you, you are a good mum.
been reading for about 2 and a half years, thought i would take the plunge and sign up.. my circumstances... i live in uk, serving as ms. i am fully awake.
i can not leave due to family, so just treating the meetings as a bit of a social club.
i would like to give out more details, but i think you all know the drill.. complete disillusionment and i suppose natural curiosity woke me up.. don't know what else to say right now, just hello, and i hope to get to know some of you guys better.
Welcome to the club...hope you find your way out of the organization for good, it seems to be so many that are just going through the motions and showing up for the social element connected to the religion.
Anyone who left more than five years ago would not recognize this religion anymore it has changed beyond anything anyone could have imagined. Wish you all the best.
