  The mother was testing that poor child:(

  Very interesting program.

  I really think all the recent media attention is really hurting the Org and they deserve every negative report they are getting.

  Absolutely call and let the authorities look into it. Always error on the side of those who can't protect themselves.

  Why hasn’t someone gotten real pissed off yet?

  i keep reading of some guy who is so upset at someone that he goes into a theater and shoots 20 people..

  or a kid that is so mad that the other kids made fun of him that he goes to school and shoots a bunch of kids..

  or some guy that was fired from his job and he goes back and shoots of bunch of his workers.

  Sadly those that leave are most likely to act out on themselves. I think the years of being told anything negative we are feeling is because we aren't praying enough, studying enough or preaching enough stays with us longer then we think.

  Family Reuinion and Being Disfellowshipped (sorry...but it's long)

  it has been a long looong time since i posted on here, but never ceased reading all the posts and keeping up on the changes that have been going on!

  but it just seems that now i have a need to get something off my chest, and this is the one place that will most definitely understand the topic at hand.

  i have been disfellowshipped for about 8yrs now, and have dealt with the 'consequences' of that decision: all my so-called friends in the org left and i was also abandoned by my own family.

  You did really good! I'm so happy your family supported you and made it clear your parents are in the wrong, because they are.

  Thank you for sharing!

  It's a shame what we put our children through raising them in such a controlling religion.

  This video brought back memories of my now 20 year old coming to me in tears when he was in kindergarten because his teacher asked him when his birthday was. He was so scared he would be disappointing Jehovah and of course us if he told her his birthday :(

  I have sat down each of my kids a apologized for robbing them of a normal childhood. I hope they get to live it through own children someday.

  just relaxing with my morning coffee enjoying looking at the pictures fipper shared of the camping trip when the dreaded knock came.

  of course the dogs beat me to the door followed by my daughter trying to catch them, she looks through the giant peep hole and waves me away saying "its them.

  " i almost just walked away from the door when i saw the sweet face of a 5/6 year old little boy with his mom and dad and couldn't resist talking to them.. i opened the door and smiled and said jehovah's witnesses?

  I'm sorry about your son possum. I absolutely understand the strain this puts on the entire family mentally, emotionally and physically and how it never fully goes away. It's a shame the Org doesn't care about those of us that suffer as wounded sheep but instead take the side of the abusers through their horrible policies.

  All we can do is warn as many as we can respectfully and lovingly while exploring our legal rights to try and force change in those policies.

  We are not alone, by any means. My thoughts are with your family.

  They can mark me whatever they want, as long as they stay away. 😀

  The wife seemed really interested and not at all shocked by what I had to say...makes me wonder if it was a JW that molested her as well? All I know is they both will be a little more careful with that precious little boy of theirs.

  I asked her husband if he was an elder and he said no, so I told him to ask his elders if there is any molesters in the hall and see what they say. I hope he does. He seemed a little more surprised by what I was saying, so hopefully he'll do a little more research.

  after describing apostates as being "mentally diseased" apostates may soon have good gounds for describing jws as being "mentally diseased", according to this news story.
