The Beast-Tower #6: 'From A Magic Shield To The 'Large Shield of Faith'--A Life Story As Told by Steven Sparlock

the scene was set: i stood amongst the enemy, brandishing my magic sword and shield.

i enjoyed the feeling of control and power that came with my vocation: warrior wizard.

but a chance encounter changed my life forever.

howdy ya'll....as of earlier this year a judge approved a custody order that allows me to use my better judgment in regards to time sharing with the x.... however, because my children choose sports and academic "endeavors" (as the x refers to it);he chooses to treat them like the enemy and shuns both my 8yr &16 yr old.... while i dont mind that i have them 365 days a yr. its really affecting my lil one.

we have attempted to call ,email and text .

however he is totally refusing communication.

I recommend avoiding doing anything that might encourage him to interact with your kids. That may sound harsh, but he is a danger to them with his current personality and belief system. There is no chance that your kids can benefit from spending time with him. I wouldn't antagonize him, just let him disappear and get your kids into therapy.

At This Point In Your Life Would You Care If You Were Disfellowshipped or Disassociated?

i'm curious..

I couldn't care less at this point. I will not participate in any efforts to readjust my thinking or attend any judicial proceedings because I don't enjoy confrontation nor do I have any interest in listening to someone tell me how wrong and how bad I am. I have decided that I am entitled to refuse to interact with people whose sole goal is to force me to conform to their idea of who I should be.

consider the popular jw myth: be careful what you bring home from a yard sale, it might have come from someone who has ties with witchcraft, magic, satan, etc.

said item thus would be an instrument the demons can use to get into your home and harass you.

so be careful of that teacup, tennis racket, or shirt you just purchased!.

Glander - I'd pay good money to see a sister do that deadpan LOL

Cog, honestly, I'd probably banish him to a nursing home and be done with it. I have very little patience for crazy bull$xxx. However, I readily admit that I'm not a very nice person. I have made a lifelong practice of refusing to allow relatives to guilt trip me into doing things I don't want to do. My family is manipulative and demanding and without an iron backbone I'd be spending every free minute doing someone else's scut work.

Now please! Is there anyone who is willing to skype with me?

by will-be-apostate in

i took this question weeks ago in the forum but received no answer.

i know you dont know me and thus are suspicious and aware but there is nothing in me that you should be aware of.

i want to have a few conversations in english to improve my talking skills.

finally awake

I don't even know what skype is. I'm old LOL. But good luck with your English

I am not at all sympathetic to such superstitous nonsense. However, you have to live with your father and you have a vested interest in keeping things peaceful. I really don't think I could tiptoe around the JW crazy on a long term basis. Perhaps you could tell him you installed a demon blocker on the computer.
