  just wondering if this was only a localised event...but knowing the wts it mustn't be.... i heard thru fellow ex dub... that there was a big hoooohah talk about associating with disassociated and disfellowed jw's..everyone had "explained" to them the rules regarding"bad associations"...the wts stand on this is meant to be firming up even more.... my lovely jw sister, who by the way never wants to answer any queries, told me when i asked why the need for more policing, she said if i attacked her"faith" shed have to limit her "association" with me...i gave her a razzberry and said,.naaah... i am not ds'd or d'ad.. but she said that doesnt matter either...??

  ?it just seems like an extra excuse for emotional black mail to me... did anyone else hear of these talks..>???

  Here Goes

  2. experiences

  here goes...i left the jws, nearly 10 years ago..i was 16 when my hand was helped along by firstly getting kicked out my parents home, (my dad had been an elder but was stood down for various family issues..me being one...and my mum was a ferocious terrier of a doorknocker..) anyway, i as a child was conditioned to please...as all jws are, and thought id give it another go, so went to live with my sister and her family ( jws too)... lasted a year before i got into"worldly hands", and my sister kicked me out... so, i went to share with my brother ( at least he wasnt a jw now, my parents threw him out too)..and got to hear from my dad that mum was dying of cancer, she was terminal...my brother and i grappled with feelings as we still wanted to see our parents and yet constantly had this cloud of ..you not being a jw are killing your mother..and my mum would beg us to come back to the "truth" so we would "live forever", this was my only ever hesitation in leaving the "organization"..and the emotional blackmail that was laid on was enormous....i managed to sit with my mum during all of her chemo treatments( something my 2 jw sisters never did) and she would constantly beg me to come back..i held my ground though it hurt to see she truly thought i was evil and would die at armageddon..my brother bore and still does the worst of this guilt..i managed to hold my ground even after my mum died an excruciatingly painful death and my dad publicly disowned my brother and i...i went to counselling and was told how well i had coped... so i went on to study and meet a great guy..marry him..a catholic!!!

  (wg)...but, listening to my brother, just recently... after he went on jw sites.

  ( he feels he has to have answers to all of it..).
