Did the author grow up as a JW and was DF'd then shunned?
How does she write about this?
Or is it well known in the Danish communities that's what JW's do?

Danish TV series on Netflix shows shunning of protagonist by her JW parents in the first few minutes of the opening episode.
by oppostate in"dicte" a danish tv series on netflix shows shunning of protagonist by her jw parents in the first few minutes of the opening episode.. it's similar to wallander if you're into that type of detective series you're sure to find this one interesting.. netflix description of the series is that:.
"a crime reporter starts a new life by returning to her hometown, where she finds herself at odds with the police when she tries to solve their cases.".
it opens with a young girl giving birth, her child is taken away, her parents helping to give the baby up.. ahead to 24 years later a woman gets out of her car and approaches a group of people entering a kingdom hall.. she calls them father and mother but they say nothing to her.

The original is in Danish, I've only found access to the first season on Netflix streaming, and as you say it's with English subtitles.
Where did you find season 2 of "Dicte"? I'm interested in seeing how the whole JW parents shunning situation is developed throughout the series.

She calls them Father and Mother but they say nothing to her. They go into the building and leave her out.
The woman starts beating up the sign that says Jehovas Vidner.

A Non J-Dub paying a visit to KingDumb Hall!
by J-DUBBED ini was thinking of doing a pop-in visit when they're doing their thing(what ever that might be).
to just see what it is that lures and hooks people, like our son.
i was worried there is some sort of subliminal messages in audio or video that start to brain-wash a person.

No electromagnetic rays but an aluminum/tin foil pointy hat would definitely keep back a lot of unwanted attention, errh somewhat.
It's the love-bombing that hooks new folks. The love that quickly disappears from most JW's once the newbie is baptized.

Shome "shite" is good for the garden, like manure, but WT "shite" is like dog-"shite"...
It ain't good for "nothing"!

Zone video meeting links or transcripts
by undercover ini've enjoyed reading many of the reports from our brothers in foreign... wait... that's not right.
let's try again.... i've enjoyed reading many of the reports from those who either experienced it first hand, or got reports from family still, the video zone meeting, complete with a gb member rambling about spanx and yoga pants.. is there a video of this momentous event, or at least a transcript of the entire meeting and its contents?.

thanks for the link I downloaded the last talk
it's unbelivable really that the GB has placed
these issues in such high importance, is this
what Jesus would spend an afternoon talking
to his disciples? I doubt it. More like a
Pharisee's rant than anything else!

Over 1,000,000 in attendance and you are worried about tight pants?
by Separation of Powers inyou know, rarely in the history of the org has a group this large congregated to hear from "mother.
" they incessantly speak of the huge group that met at yankee stadium in 1958...the over 250,000 that congregated to be instructed by jehovah.
but over the weekend, there were over 1,000,000 people excited to hear some type of direction, some type of encouragement, something to help them hang on "just a little longer.".

The only part of my suits that seems to be tight is the belly part.
But I'm going to Amazon.com and buying the most neon colored socks I can and wear them to the KH.
I pity the fool that says anything at the KH about my choice of clothing!

Send the BOE a letter saying you are no longer a member of such and such congregation and are looking for another more Christian and welcoming JW congregation. Although in no way is your decision to withdraw membership from that Congregation in particular to be interpreted as disassociating with the whole association of JW's. Only you wish to stop the maligning and damaging relationship the local BOE has develop with you and want to seek a more peaceful and beneficial congregation for you.
The next day send them another letter saying that if they dare hold any religious based judicial proceedings against you or in retaliation for your decision you will depend on legal counsel to bring them to court as a BOE for their not following their own rules published in WTS publications.
Say that you will not sue the WTS or the traveling representative unless they become actively supportive of the BOE's past harrassment and mistreatment of you as a congregation member.
The BOE will get a black eye from the CO and the Branch because they don't want to be involved and your relationship with the BOE could cost them legal troubles and bad publicity.
They will stop hounding you.
Take your time. Maybe you'll find another JW Congregation to be a member of, maybe not ever, but whatever the case it's your decision to be part of it or not.

Even if not said, even if only thought, the inner perception of most JW's would be to raise a flag of concern and distrust that a person known as a "brother" has whiskers without an obvious excuse like a skin problem. Facial hair is a branding of "BA", bad attitude.

Ok, this pope has some pretty good advice here. Take note of #9
by nonjwspouse inthe popes 10 tips for a happier life.
1. live and let live.
everyone should be guided by this principle, he said, which has a similar expression in rome with the saying, move forward and let others do the same.. 2. be giving of yourself to others.

If he was really sincere about these points he'd step off his high-chair and declare the Papacy un-scriptural, a result of paganism infiltrating the early Church. Watching a Catholic-Spring rise up would be cool! An end to pomposity!
