  Good.

  They need to enforce that law here in South Florida and throw the book at anyone talking on their cell phone while driving.

  The people down here in South Florida drive like idiots.........in fact they cannot drive..........and even less when talking on their cell phones on I-95 for 30 minutes to two hours; non-stop.

  Unbelievable the number of accidents, deaths, injuries, etc down here by these lackluster , stupid drivers. 85% of them cannot speak or read english and are allowed to get drivers' licenses and get on the road.

  It is downright scary to drive here.

  Talk to his mother about the situation and if need be, ask a sympathic law enforcement person to intercede.

  His actions are not only disrespectful and disobedient, but dangerous for your daughters.

  Bible story....Made up?

  by arker in

  when you think of a parent who has a misbehaved child.

  it is normal as they grow to feel they "know better than their parent.

  does a good parent continue to let the child make bad choices and say " since you think you know it all lets just let you continue and see who's right?".

  All I can say is that my daughter (not a JW) but has started reading the My Book of Bible Stories publication to our grandsons, ages 2 and 5 was reading to them a couple of weeks ago and interjected that God says and want's children to be obedient to their parents.

  Our 2 year old grandson than aptly asked: when did God tell you that mommy?

  Well needless to say when she told me this I could not help but laugh. You see, my 2 year old grandson does not take anything on 'face value". He is definitely the 'doubting Thomas' and must have everything proved to him. Because he is definitely going through the 'terrible twos' he has no intention of being good or obedient all the time and wanted to actually know when God told my daughter this command.

  Children as so smart...........................

  well, this weekend, i went on an outing with the wife to see the sights.

  we went up to austin, georgetown, and then across to lampassas - where i filled up with fuel at a local station.. on the way to the hotel we were staying at, a pimple-faced kid in a honda pulls up alongside me, and gives me this 'staredown' look.

  very serious this kiddo.

  Hi:

  I get your point.........it's just I worry about how our young people have no sense of the fear of losing their lives when they do drag race.

  I'm glad you were responsible and I did not mean to offend you or your wife.

  Thanks,

  I Believe She's Trying to Get me Disfellowshipped!

  i've tried to be nice about it, perhaps i'm just a little too nice when dealing with her.

  ok, my ex-fiancee started blowing up my phone again and leaving voicemails.

  i considered changing my number weeks ago but changed my mind when her calls stopped but i might need to consider it now.

  It's time to be proactive:

  1) File a harassement charge against her and get a restraining order that includes she is not to call you.

  2) Go to the Elders and let them know you have filed a harassment charge and requested a retraining order against her.

  3) Let her know you have taken these steps.

  Hi:

  I'm sorry if I do not share your humor in this.

  But drag racing has caused the loss of many lives over the years and I feel as adults we should be setting an example to our young persons to respect life/lives and not take or initiate dares.

  Just my opinion.

  This is truly sad.

  I and my husband were on the building committees for 10 years and the time, expense and, energies we gave up to help the WT build these KH's cannot even be measured.

  Because of what they believed, these ones gave their lives fully and now they are gone.

  I agree with another's post that these loss of lives were unnecessary. There are many congregations that are so small now, and yet the WT is splitting to make it look like they are growing and continues to build KHs. This is true of a cong here in Boynton Beach FL that we visited two weeks ago. The brothers and sisters were trying to sell us to coming to their cong because they had split and the cong attendence was under 100 persons. (go figure).

  I can only hope and believe that Jah will not forget these brothers and will bless their remaining loved ones.................

  Did the time come when it became unbearable to walk in the Kingdom Hall?

  i didn't attend any meetings in the month of august.

  i worked too many hours and i just don't care any longer.

  just the thought of driving 45 minutes,greeting brothers and sisters who don't really care about each other,singing the dreadful songs,listening to the boring talk(which are repeats of a repeat),going over the slanted watchtower study and then driving another 45 minutes home.. how did you feel when you knew that it was becoming unbearable to attend another meeting?.

  Yes........for many months my husband & I did not want to be bothered.

  Now we can walk into a KH, (knowing what we know and understanding the brainwashing, etc.), listen to a Sunday talk and walk out.

  I still cannot stomach sitting throught the WT study.......................
