Get past the accent and the being put on hold and the round and round the houses.
It is very very good.
The brother - don't forget this is a service desk elder - is like a whipped puppy. Just hear his embarrassed voice.

Discussing the RC with a friend and my JW wife was listening.
by Driving Force ini am fuming at the moment and my wife has made me so angry.. i live in germany and an ex jw, a friend of mine is also ex jw but does not understand english so i was giving him a rundown on the friday session of the rc with gj.
my wife was in another part of the house but heard my phone ring and so she came to listen, i did not realize this, because when the phone rang i closed two doors between myself and my wife.
she opened the first door and started listening to the conversation.

I don't know ... is six months - of real unpleasantness I grant you - enough time to let your marriage fail without a fight?
Your wife is scared witless and acting like a mind controlled drone - which she is. No backbone to stoically continue in her faith and act maturely.
At 15 your daughter may well jump into this religion with her because she needs her mother's support. If you can bear it play a longer game.
If not well fair enough. I don't know enough to advise you really.

Early on, not sure if it was in her statement or when asked by her lawyer about how it all affected her I think she said "I'm taking a break" so I think she is playing the "inactive" card. I hope I've got that right anyway.
Her status? Superhero!
Somewhere along side other Hero's like Candace Conti and Barbara Anderson and Lee elder - just above other heroes like (collectively) the Royal Commission and Paul Grundy.

And in the newsroom section of jwdotorg. In the legal and human rights and legal developments section; guess what is missing? In among the Russia stuff and the yapping about South Korea and this and that - you got it.
NOTHING ABOUT THE ROYAL COMMISSION IN AUSTRALIA

I watched Mr. Jackson last night with my super cult minded parents
by Magwitch ini have seen some ask on this site how the active jw's are handling what is happening in australia.
here is my little experience from last night........ my parents were baptized in the late 30's as children and have never faltered in their determination to survive the great tribulation and live forever in paradise (even though they actively associate with all their df'ed kids).
my father is still actively serving as an elder and my mother has always been by his side.

Why not show them kevin bowditch's testimony or the branch coordinator's. At least that will ensure they continue to understand and talk to their df'd kids! -

(i may already know the answer to that last question.

Would this be any use to the Royal Commission?
by freddo ini believe this shows how the org.
doesn't want to be held accountable to secular legal authorities.. in the 1991 green elders handbook (used between 1991 and 2010) there is a blank page (page 143) and at one elders school we were instructed to write six expressions that "should not be used on s77 + s79 forms (df and da forms)".. 1) anything alluding to or naming one of the society's legal advisers.. 2) any mention of the legal desk.. 3) any comments referring to direction from the society.. 4) any comments mentioning anyone other than the committee itself as a possible influence in the decision reached.. 5) any comment that might suggest someone with a critical eye that the committee did not reach its decision on its own but instead somehow yielded to the influence of an outside party.. 6) any comments indicating the elders mishandled the case or committed any error in the investigation or the judicial committee process.. i have in my possession two elders handbooks with these exact words written in each in different handwriting.

1) Anything alluding to or naming one of the Society's legal advisers.
2) Any mention of the legal desk.
3) Any comments referring to direction from the Society.
4) Any comments mentioning anyone other than the committee itself as a possible influence in the decision reached.
5) Any comment that might suggest someone with a critical eye that the committee did not reach its decision on its own but instead somehow yielded to the influence of an outside party.
6) Any comments indicating the elders mishandled the case or committed any error in the investigation or the judicial committee process.
