Dubs badmouthing children
by rebel8 ini was remembering the 1980s when it was in vogue to shun children.
they went through a fad when they'd call unbaptized excommunication as "disassociation".
within a short period of time, most of the teens and preteens were "disassociated" or disfellowshipped.

Good quote Blondie. Maybe my area was very hardlined. Or it depends on who you know. I wish I had that information then.
My child, was an UBM. In the mid 90's, my child's name was read off from the platform as being no longer an UBM. Still got the same 'treatment'. Was just a kid of 12. The wrongdoing was kissing.
Sweet treatment from the elders...they told me after the anouncemnt what it was all about.

Smile, 3rdgen. She is beautiful.
Not that I wouldnt fix a brocken nose or other things. But she looks like she has never nursed a bambini. You've got to earn that silicone.

I remember this all to well.
In highschool, my best friend's UBM sister got marked from the platform. I dont remember the exact words used. But you treated them the same as being DFed. She was 15 and had run away for one night with a boy , nothing happened but kissing. But she was marked as if she did more. Her sick stepdad cut off all her beautiful long blond hair for punishment.

I agree with Sir82 .
That, and watching, or losing someone to cancer. Hearirng everyone say, 'we are praying for them'. Thank you for your thoughtfulness, but it really wont help. But for a believer in God it may calm them.
@ gymbob...simply put. I was thinking the same thing. Mostly, the only living things were the rats during the horrible trench conditions of WW1.
@ rebel8 , also like Christopher Hithcens . It just didnt happen.

"Do you love books?", he asked.

Carla. In some countries, it can take along time for a divorce.
In Italy, it took 5 years for a legal divorce. You could have a nice Kingdom Hall wedding after 2 years. Sign a paper stateing you aggree to legaly marry when you get your divorce (5 years) . If you changed your mind and didnt marry it was an auto DF. The 'brothers' thought this was a loving provision from Jah.
That changed about 10 years ago, when the waiting period went down to 2 years.
I was very suprised to hear this. Having had a scriptual divorce, getting counceled for talking to someone on the phone, because I had 2 months pending for my final decree. But can you imagine waiting 5 years.
IMO, I dont think they were advocating poligamy.

When my grandson speaks of his being an atheist . His Mom sugests we gentely tell him he's really an agnostic. It's like voting sweetie, you have to grow up some to make certain choices. I asked what influenced him , parents , news, friends, his JW grandfather, the world, me . He said his parents.
When that Lunatic predicted the end of the world recently, he texted me the next day and LOLed about it. I did too , having grown up during the 75 fiasco.
