  What was your ''the last straw that broke the camels back'' moment

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  there is a limit to how much straw (long yellow grass) a camel can carry on its back.

  if you keep putting more straw on top, it will finally break the camel's back.

  when you are at the last straw you are finally angry and will not take any more.. my moment (to stop attending all watchtower meetings) was after the harsh treatment from the elders and fellow congregation members of my second cousin who was disfellowhipped as a teenager.

  Yep been at family funerals same thing happened. .brothers pointing and telling others not to speak to family member because they were df...sicko s ...also covering over of abuse because it was just one persons word... even tho more than one person accused the same person. ...watching the accused get away with it for decades. ..and still is....that's just the tip of the ice berg

  In my cong I remember one time my husband was about to go on the platform to give a student talk when the P.O. taped him on the shoulder and called him out the back.....he was told he could not give his talk because his haircut was too Worldly ! (He had had it cut thst day and the style then had a step in it...like Gibs in NCIS) Another time the same elder told me off because I collected the family literature order from the desk. ..aparently thst job belonged to the Spiritual head of the house. ...
