  Dealing with family

  by G Skero in

  1. social
  2. family

  i'm in my mid 40's and recently started bible study and going to meetings.

  my family is really having a hard time with this.

  my kids that are over 18 are no longer speaking to me and won't have anything to do with me.

  anyone attending ?i have family still in that are there.

  and i see on the local news that some of the protests are becoming rowdy.

  i pray that they are safe because they have this deluded attitude that jehovah will keep them safe and nothing will happen to them.

  hello forum.

  i started this topic because i had been thinking recently about a story that i had heard many times in different congregations over the years.

  kind of a jw urban legend if you will.

  What to Expect When You Leave JW.Org - Life After the Witnesses

  by passwordprotected in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  the old-timers here will know me and my journey from born-in jehovah's witness, pioneer and - latterly - elder.

  i've also written a couple of updates over the last 2 years or so, covering how i went from the jws to a frantic need to hold onto the idea of an all-powerful abrahamic god to a sceptic to an atheist.. however, i wanted to cover a couple of things to expect when you leave the watchtower religion and its tentacle-like control over your life.. birthdays and xmas.

  if you've got kids, do it.

  i created this thread so that jwr members can list their old jwr username with their username for whatever site they've moved to.

  i apologize if this has already been created somewhere else.. jwr = starrynight.

  jwd = starrynight9.

  Welcome y'all from JWR - any questions?

  by Simon in

  1. forum
  2. announcements

  i just wanted to take a minute to say "hi" and welcome to the site for anyone who's come here from jwr.

  i can imagine the site being shut down suddenly was shocking and unsettling for many who relied on it and sometimes you don't realize how much you do rely on something until it is gone.. hopefully you'll see some of the same familiar names appearing and be able to reconnect with people you knew via this site and continue your journey together.

  i don't know what the posting policies on jwr were but know it as a moderated site so can't imagine them being hugely different to the ones here.
