  How are they controlling the use of technology during meetings/conventions?

  by candela in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  there was no texting or cellphones readily available for all teenagers and kids when i last attended a meeting or convention.

  you use to have to talk or draw or write notes to keep yourself entertained during the long hours of boredom, which wasn't easy to do discretely.

  i would've love to have texting phones in that time!

  2. friends

  anyone keep their kids from playing sports because of the borg?.

  when my son was 8 years old they had a t-ball league in the summer at the nearby park.

  because of the borg training we told him he couldn't play t-ball.. that kind of thinking just carried on throughout his life from junior high through high school.

  Stupid Knorr! Should Witnesses have Sunday school just for kids?

  by Witness 007 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  imagine sitting thru the watchtower study on a sunday with your 6 year old and 9 year old kids....the topic "fornication" the discussion explains how oral sex and touching of genitals is still fornication...why do kids have to sit thru this??

  or the bible reading is about lot having sex with his daughters....this type of thing is not for kids!

  and why should kids be forced to sit quietly while someone drones on for 2 hours?.
