It was mixed. My mother needs me to care for her occasionally she didn't want to hear my point of view but still talks to me. She is housebound so doesn't attend meetings and no witnesses other than my sister, cleaner and hairdresser visit. This means that she doesn't get the contextural pressure that the meetings reinforce. She still lives in the past so hasn't kept pace with Jehovah's chariot so she still believes what she believed when she joined.
My older sister was a class A Bitch. Initially she told me that you couldn't be DF'd for denying that the GB were Gods representatives on Earth. I told her you could and I was. She then said I deserved to be Df'd. Her next move was to visit my mother and remind her of the need to treat me like a dead person. There have been only 2 occasions since when I have seen her and she has looked right through me and refused to acknowledge I was in the room.
My other sisters are free of the organisation and we get on fine and my Dad never was a JW so he is delighted.
We hope that our families will be different from the standard JWs but often the power of the group is too strong and they conform. The organisation trains people to think that blood counts for nothing and many are helpless. However non JW family are often more forgiving and accepting than we give them credit for.
