  so, i know this has likely been discussed before, but i am still amazed at what i see of witnesses on fb.

  i see references to birthdays, or actually celebrating of birthdays.

  i just saw pictures of one witness i knew (i am guessing she isn't one anymore...) eating a birthday cake and opening birthday gifts.

  My son is visiting this weekend and he wants to go back to college

  when my son was in high school he received a scholarship for two yrs at our community college .

  we were all witnesses at that time , but we encouraged him to go for the education .

  he would have to attend night classes two nights during the week that interfered with meetings.

  the last talk at the convention was about serving loyally with jehovah's spirit-directed organization.

  i had such a hard time sitting through it.

  even last year i actually enjoyed it.

  So, you blew your chance to go to college because of JWs? Don't give up!

  i got the jw "bug" as a teenager.

  witnesses called at our door when i was nearly 11. my parents are deaf and i was the oldest hearing child, the default interpreter for them in that era before relay services and professional interpreters.

  they had no interest in jws, but it started to spark an interest in me.

  for "born-ins"

  does anyone remember being a little kid and being forced to sit through those 2 hour meetings?

  specifically being made to listen to graphic accounts of whatever country that was going through horrific persecution.

  (or any other horrors you might remember).
