I think I've planted a seed!
by OneDayillBeFree ini could be wrong, but i can't help but be a bit optimistic.last night my parents and i had our "family worship night".
i hate it, and i believe my mother does too.
my dad only does it because he's an elder but last night even he was acting like he didnt want to do it.

HI! im new here...
by outofthelionsden ini have been reading post on this forum for many months and i wanted to thank you all for all the great posts and comments that have really helped me get through this hard year of fading.
my husband and i where born in jdubs and almost 1 year ago we started to fade , now that we think about it has been a few years that we were suffering from cognitive dissonance without knowing it.
we feel that finally we have our life back , a life that is just starting.

Hi and Welcome.
We're all family here, quirks and foibles but there is also genuine love and acceptance. Congratulations on really living the rest of your lives the way you wish to.
BTW, I actually had to laugh when I read that your family paid money to find out what websites you were visiting. Poor things. They really need to get a life.
Cheers!

Does being a "born in" blur parental vs JW issues?
by obfuscatetheobvious inthank you to the many people who have posted their experiences and advice on this site!
i have browsed a few topics but the threads that i seem to gravitate to the most deal with family.
there is certainly a lot that i can relate to in many of the anecdotes i have read.

Parents are authority figures and the jw stuff makes them even more so, especially in their own eyes.
I have issues with my mother although on reflection I wonder if it's more a mother/daughter thing. I need her to see me as a fully functioning, successful adult and I feel as though she sees me as less than that because of I walked away from the 'truth'. We bristle, and sometimes clash because (I think) she feels I should simply obey her absolutely just because she's my mother.
It's complicated.
