  Ran into my daughter's in-laws, mother and step dad. She is a pioneer and he is an elder. She and I were discussing age and wrinkles. He said to me, you know, that can all end, and she said, he's talking about the new system. I said , I know, they've been saying that for the last 134 years. He said, well its really getting close now and I said, yeah, They've been saying THAT for the last 134 years. They didn't say anymore about it, we just said our good byes and walked away.

  I bet she run's to my daughter with that. I don't care, I'm not in a mind control cult and can speak my own mind!

  Any way, it just made me feel good to say that to them!!!!

  thought I would share it with ya'll.

  Hello everyone

  i have been lurking on here for some time and i finally decided to join the fray.

  i am 25 years old and was raised in the society.

  fortunately when i was 8, my father left the organization and this allowed me to see the wrold from both angles, the jw (mom) and not (dad).. at first, i was strongly on the side of the witnesses and i even allowed myself to be convinced that getting baptised at 11 was a good idea.

  My wounds opened up badly today

  the past three weeks having been so stressful and very sad.

  my ex husband died after being in hospital for just over a week in intensive care.. i was just 18 and he was 21 when we first met and after a whirlwind romance we married 6 months later and have two sons together who are now adults.

  although our marriage ended after 25 years and i remarried 7 years ago, he was my first love and i knew him for most of my life.

  Maddie, I feel so sad for what is being done to you and to your grand-daughter. I like the letter you wrote to the paper, the more that get's out to the public the better.

  I hope one day the WT is brought down and all this bs comes to an End. Those are the Last Day's I'm waiting for. Hang in there, maybe one day you will get reuntied with your angel.

  Best Wishes and condolences for your loss.

  I want to thank you

  few of my threads get to 3 pages of responses and i suspect that i am the one who pushes it by responding to everyone.

  who posts.. but i know people read my posts.. there have certainly been times when i needed the support and got it.

  but those times are fewer now.. sometimes i feel like i am repeating myself and i probably am.

  Sending Out a Letter to My JW Daughter - Give Me Your Thoughts Please

  by flipper in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  some of you probably read my jw daughter's letter to mrs. flipper and me a few weeks ago where she tried explaining to mrs. flipper why she doesn't have anything to do with me ( says i talk negative towards the organization ) .

  in that letter though she showed some flashes of her authentic, kind personality and told us she loves us.

  but much of the letter was proselytizing to us about how bad the system is and how jeovah will bring a paradise, etc.

  flipper,

  Love has to win out....my heart goes out to your family with the struggle the cult is putting you though.

  I really like your letter and I think it was a good idea to send it.

  Best wishes

  Witness parents using "loophole" to associate with Disfellowshiped children! threats?

  by Witness 007 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  in my old congregation there are many disfellowshiped young ones.

  the parents use the watchtower rule that they need "assistance" from their children therefore can have them over and associate with them more freely.

  this has clearly been abused as disfellowshiped kids taking the whole family on hloidays out to dinner, etc....but the elders turn a blind eye.
