been reading for about 2 and a half years, thought i would take the plunge and sign up.. my circumstances... i live in uk, serving as ms. i am fully awake.
i can not leave due to family, so just treating the meetings as a bit of a social club.
i would like to give out more details, but i think you all know the drill.. complete disillusionment and i suppose natural curiosity woke me up.. don't know what else to say right now, just hello, and i hope to get to know some of you guys better.
i know it's not easy for you to walk it's a big decision, family and etc.. if you are afraid consider this.
i have been here for a few years and i can count on one hand from posters who made the statement, i can't take it anymore, i'm going back.. what is it that members here have given up their family and friends to be free.
is it so we can have sinful fun, we are our own person and no one will tell us what to do?.

I don't read this as passing judgement, I read it as a frank question so have a slightly different response.
What was it for me? That I filled my life with other things (higher education), was living with a non-believer and those JWs who knew me thought I was spiritually weak anyway so quickly drifted away from me before I ever left and as a result they never kept me guilt tripped in. As part of my higher education, I moved towns. Never knew TTATT. Now my life does not exist in the WT sense so I would never consider going back - with or without TTATT.
Agree the support received in this forum is great but it's no comparison to the face to face relationships that humans thrive on (whether positively charged or negatively charged). Once you are out and have that hardened affirmation (that your choice was the right one for you to make at the time), seeing these fabulous forums is refreshingly supportive. But I dare say when you are in it, it's unknown territory! That fear factor like Simon suggests can be debilitating!
"downsizing" has reached special pioneers.. this is the template mexico is using to get rid of many of its special pioneers.
see how cold and unloving is the language they use.
a translation attempt is as follows:.
I think (as in my unsubstantiated theory) the Nov 2013 article "be ready to obey no matter what" was penned around the time they got the financial advisors offer of service to rationalise the business (June 2013).
From 2014, it has been a case of implementation of the consultant's recommendations, through a calendarised action plan that includes some book changes and meeting changes to keep everyone distracted during the implementation period.
May 2015 broadcast for more money, vote on hall financing & introduced tithe of sorts, slowing of building work and how many lay offs have happened and its really adding ground pepper shake by shake to the soup.
alright, i want everyone to list your top three reasons for jw to be cult and/or not the true religion.
1.you can't look, or wear whatever you want.. 2. blah.
3. blah.
1. Special Language terms that only they know. ("The truth, the other sheep" etc)
2. Free critical thinking, charity outside the group and Questioning of doctrine or policy not tolerated.
3. Exclusion of individuals through shunning and acceptance from others that this practice demonstrates love.
thanks to the "wonderful" rebranding of the midweek meetings, most congregations will now have to fork out some of the cash from their org-decreed "3 months operating costs", and pay good money in order to change their kingdom hall signs which inform "interested ones" about the name/nature of the meetings being held.. 'money' and 'drain' spring to mind!

weird/odd question, but with our family fading, and our daughter in school how or should one approach teachers with this?
our child is a little too young to understand why we are fading, but it proves challenging in school as they have been, well brainwashed, to say i shouldn't do that etc... .
i don't like explaining anything to teachers about the fade, etc.
A qualifying question would do it... "Do you know much about the JWs?"
@Faye - yes it was surprisingly easy. Due to the town being quite uber dub, there are many trapped teens who liberally talk about their dissatisfaction.
after a long struggle with myself, i did send a sms to my mother this morning, telling her i didn't want to go to the meeting, and that i no longer believe in the organisation, don't really believe in god any more either but i put that out.
i wrote about three things that i thought are obvious, the overlapping generation that doesn't make sense, the flood an the animals in australia- how they came there.
and jw tv that makes them look as any other religion.
there has been many threads from various posters around the world about recent bethel layoffs.. so far i remember threads about:.

Scaling the business back shouldn't be a shock. Newspaper companies here have been closing up left right and centre. Everyone has an app or website to get that info from. Doesn't mean anything other than a mode of communication is becoming redundant, or in WTs case, a liability.
