They don't have emergency exit lighting? That seems odd for a "place of assembly".

When we donate to a charity we don't know how the money is used
That is a broad assertion. It is not true for many charities, especially smaller and local ones. If I donate to the local Habitat for Humanity branch, that money stays here--it is used to build a lower-income house in our town. A donation to the local homeless shelter or food bank has visible, local results. These organizations have small staffs, mostly volunteer, and the few paid members are nowhere close to being 1%-ers.
Information on charities, their budgets, and their expenses literally at your fingertips.

Yes, every week this goes on only makes the regular refs' bargaining position stronger. It's time for the league to cut their losses and make a deal.

Another uplifting talk from SD-7!
I heard that brother Steven has recently been a service partner with Sister Barbie. What a fine turn of events, he is SOOOO much more spiritual than that worldly apostate Ken!

FYI - I emailed my lawyer with a copy of the child custody brochure today. It broke my heart to do it.....but I had to
If it's come to that, sharing the pamphlet with your lawyer is a good move. With knowledge of the Watchtower tactics, your attorney will be prepared to deal with them effectively. With the lawyers involved, you may be past the point of no return. That's sad, but under the circumstances getting out is probably the lesser evil.
My 5 year old asked my wife in front of me "Mama.....does daddy serve Satan?" I looked at my wife and said "well.....why don't you answer her?" She remained silent. Then at night....my 5 year old said "I just don't understand.....why to you want to be friends with Satan?"
Document these events as best you can. This situation has a name: parental alienation syndrome.
The most important thing is to not sink to her level (your lawyer should already have had this talk with you, but it's worth repeating). No name-calling, no bad-mouthing her to the children, no threats. Don't put the children in the middle of a dispute between you and your wife. You need to stand up for yourself, while following every rule scrupulously. Think twice, three times about what you say and do--avoid anything that could be twisted and taken out of context to make you look bad in a custody hearing. Protect yourself against false allegations. And take care of yourself, your children need their father!

A poignant comment on JWsurvey.org from a nonJW regarding Sparlock
by cedars ini woke up this morning to find the following comment had been left on jwsurvey.org on my article entitled "watchtower's new 'toy story' - what parents need to know".
it read as follows.... .
my grandson, who is 3, was telling me magic is bad several times a day.

Before discussing the Watchtower with her daughter, she should read A Catholic Critique of Jehovah's Witnesses. It was written about half a century ago, but still offers an good (unflattering) survey of WT history and doctrines. It is particularly appropriate for those with a Catholic background (practicing or not).
"In what follows we shall attempt to investigate the more outstanding pecularities of the Witnesses’ creed….We would emphasize our purpose in doing this, which is not to ridicule or make light of anyone’s beliefs simply because they are not our beliefs. What has prompted this analysis is the Witnesses’ own insistence on their beliefs as truths which contradict our beliefs and are incompatible with them. We shall approach the Witnesses’ creed from the standpoint of those elements in it which are avowedly destructive of the Judeo-Christian tradition in which we stand. In doing so, we hope to do a service not merely for those of the Catholic religion but also for all who share the concern of the Catholic Church for the fundamental doctrines and values of the Christianity which has molded our society…"
