all that needs to be done is post a no trespassing sign. jw's r instructed to not go to homes with these signs or they r on their own legally. even the most uber elder pioneer in my former hall skipped those houses. we took addresses to write but never went to the houses.

Parents forum - moaning about JW's knocking
by not bitter inone of the mums on this forum is complaining about dubs knocking her door.

And it's hard to not want to sprint once you are awake. Putting the brakes on takes great will power when one is surrounded by the infuriating craziness that is the org. I am hoping her hubby starts to wake up as well.

My last meeting was the end of December 2011. I saw too much over the top hypocrisy and politics plus the 1914/generation thing bugged me as well as no birthdays but baby showers and wedding anniversaries are fine. Waaaay too many double standards. Tell a householder to analyze their own beliefs and change no matter what and jw's ask one valid but unanswerable question and r labeled apostates. It's the arbitrary labels placed upon ones based on which set of elders one gets in their game of spiritual roulette. An elder stopped by the other day. Just one. I told him that I was NEVER coming back. He said "but I want you to live". I said "for the first time in my life, I am".

As a pediatric hospice nurse for several years and a family member of 4 persons who used hospice I cannot tell you how invaluable their help was. As a hospice nurse we focused not only on the needs of the patient but those of the family. I have never worked with more a more caring group of healthcare workers. I am so sorry Roberta and my thoughts are with you and your mom right now. I hope you both receive the love, support and respect you both deserve during this very difficult time.

Thank you all so much. She has ordered Steve Hassan's books and I am letting her read my COC. The books r being delivered to my house. She says her husband seems to have his own issues but she is afraid to push the envelope now. They rarely have a family study but jgnat that is a great question. She actually signed up to be a member of this forum today!!! Yay!!! And just to reiterate...you guys r awesome. I know she will find great support here just as I have.
