I would always get involved..Call 911 and scream out that the police are on the way, throw a shoe, something. I certainly wouldn't just watch someone being attacked.

How Involved Would You Get If You Saw Somebody Being Mistreated?
by minimus inwe live in a world where people do not want to get involved.
if they see a domestic abuse, they walk the other way.
if they see signs of neglect or abuse, many just go on with their business.. would you get involved with a situation, even if you might get caught in a crossfire yourself?.

I Went Back To the Kingdom Hall
by Clint Bussey inlast year i went back to the hall while even though i was disfellowsipped 9 years ago and never intend to get reinstated.
i went back to talk to all my friends and relatives and blantantly ignore the disfellowshipping policy.
i chose to go to my jw parents hall where they are in "good standing" and regularly attend meetings as they ingnore their son.

Loved your letter Cam..Welcome.
It's amazing as kids what words stick with us. I can see how those words could have kept you in that state for many years.
I really hope you mother reads that as I have and opens up and pulls you close knowing how much you love her unconditionally

It just cracks me up how they actually think we care if they are looking..LOL.
My poor kids have JW women working at their schools. Yeah, they watch them like a hawk since we stopped going. One actually had the nerve to come up to me after months of not saying a word. only to inform me my son had a girlfriend!! She was so disappointed when I informed her I was very much aware of the girlfriend and how my kids don't hide anything from me.
I'm telling you it's like they have nothing better to do with their time.

I agree with out at last. Why not just stay in a hotel for a weekend?
No need to ruin her plans to show off her home town and get to know the family.

Of the sexual abuse survivors you knew. . .
by Lady Lee inhow many fit this description provided by no longer held captive?.
as a nurse, i can tell you that their lives wont go well.

Lady Lee,
I thank you so much for your experience and love you bring to this forum.
I'm in a major struggle with taking that step to just give in and allow someone to know my thoughts and feelings with what has happened in our lives. My husband has really been pushing me to seek counseling because he knows I'm not even near the wife and mother I use to be before my child was molested but for some reason fear of the unknown keeps me pretending things are okay for now, fooling everyone around me just enough to lay off the pressure.
I come here and seek out your posts because I know they will help me in my need, so please know, your efforts and insight are much appreciated even though many of us just read them and are helped without saying a word.
