If Jehovah ever went to a psychiatrist, the advice he would be given is that it isn't anyone else's job to make Him happy, He has to make the choice to be happy regardless of others around Him.

7We can make Jehovah happy!
by Sour Grapes inlight travels at 186,000 miles per second and it would take light 25,000,000,000 years to travel across the visible universe.. with that in mind, the borg tells us that we can make jehovah happy or sad by the things that we say or do.
i think that yhwh has bigger fish to fry.. so god watches and listens to everyone on earth so that he knows what emotions to feel.. the borg acts like they are the center of the universe and so do most jdubs.
they are just a three ring clown circus..

Doesn't it make your eyes all misty for the good old days when JWs, incited by Judge Rutherford to do so, would picket the Catholic churches in Quebec? Which, in turn, compelled the Catholics to contact the authorities and have those JWs arrested? Which is what The Judge™ wanted, so they could Legally Establish™ The Preaching Work™ as a fundamental religious right....

It sounds like they know exactly what is happening in their congregations, and are digging their heels in, refusing to open their records to their government's investigations.
"We have nothing to hide, so go away and leave us alone!" doesn't sound fishy at all.

So rather than helping two people whom they claim are mentally ill, plus the two children they have together, they reject them, refuse to speak to them or have any contact with them.

So she calls you, *twice*, clearly with the intention of scolding you and yelling at you, over a promise you made to a complete stranger when you were in high school? And then she tells your brother that you upset her???
If I could diagnose that $h!t, I'd say your mother has bipolar disorder.
The thing is, if you do as your brother asks and cease communication, they control the narrative of the relationship. "Silentbuddha doesn't call us, doesn't speak to us anymore." All this behind your back and turns you into the bad guy.
If only for your own peace of mind, maybe write a letter to your mom/dad/brother about why the "promise" you made under duress (in a room with other people who had expectations of you to answer the way you did) as a high schooler is not valid. You weren't old enough to drive, vote, get married, get a job, buy or drink alcohol, *enter a contract* (promise), etc. and the law exempts you from those *adult* things because you are still considered to be a child, without the benefit of full brain development. There's science behind that.
You were in an unfair situation. The adults in the room took advantage of you. That was not okay. It's not okay now for your mother to give you $h!t over it. She's likely more upset because she believes that Fred Franz thinks less of her and her parenting.

Guess what?
The WTS has been railing against Higher Education™ for over half a century. They bullied me out of it on my first go at learning a vocation after high school.
Twelve years later I went back to college, against cries of "But Armageddon™ is Right Around the Corner™!" and three years following that, I graduated with Honours. In a few weeks' time I will have graduated 20 years ago.
Armageddon™ is not coming. There is no New System™. Everyone is going to grow old and die. I don't say that to be discouraging, but to emphasize that THIS is the ONLY LIFE we have, and it's up to each person to make the most of the life they have. If you have talent, develop it. If you have a thirst for knowledge and a drive to achieve goals and a career, then GO FOR IT.
The only reason the WTS has been successful at getting people to delay or forfeit their education and career and even marriage and family, is because they've convinced their followers that there's plenty of time for all that in the New System™. They're LYING. It's what they do.
They've convinced people to live as though they'll never die, which makes people believe they can put things off indefinitely. Living with the certainty of death helps people set goals for themselves, to do or try things when they have the opportunity, because those opportunities may not come again. Plan for your future, because the one the WTS offers is a worthless pile of crap.
