yesterday, before we went to dinner at mak and sabine's, a friend called me from the kh to warn me they had mom on the phone link for the meeting (their meeting is at 4pm).
i went downstairs to see what she was up to, since i had taken the phones out, to stop her from calling everyone in town to complain about the 'abuse she was suffering' at the hands of her daughter (me).
she was standing over the speaker phone (i had taken the hand set off), and she was furiously pushing buttons, and sobbing.
My thoughts are with you and your family. I don't think that there is any easy solution to this and there is heartache and pain whereever you turn. and I certainly don't have the knowledge and background to give advice.
I think that you are doing the best you can under the circumstances, never give up hope, but please protect yourself and YOUR family too.
My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.
this website is very misleading!
it says its for jehovahs witnesses, for brothers and sisters!!!
and this site is no such thing!
For Christs sake. Let's see...I've been here for almost 1 1/2 years. In that time, WOL.com, Purelanguage and several other "true" witness sites have closed their doors.
This site seems to stay around...I wonder why?

Your matchmakingwheel has landed on the GIRL NEXT DOOR. This natural, spontaneous gal isjust your type! You can't resist her tender-hearted nature and sweet smiles.
Well, our Wheel of Types has landed on the RENAISSANCE MAN. You're cultured and knowledgeable women love your sophistication and passionate nature.
do you remember these two gems of spiritual insight?
``at times explanations given by jehovah's visible organization have shown adjustments, seemingly to previous points of view.
but this has not actually been the case.
Very nicely researched!
well i had a surprise yesterday.
i received a phone call from an old witness friends daughter.i used to watch her a lot and she was almost like one of my own.
her mom had emotional problems and wasn't too fond of kids.
I really am not jnto getting people out, unless they are really being hurt by the religion. Some witnesses are made to feel so worthless. Then I'd do what I could to get them out. My buddies wife is a JW and she seems very happy so I just don't discuss things with her. Once she wanted to know my doubts and I asked her "do you really want to know or are you trying to give me a witness" and she told me "sorry, I shouldn't have done that".Feel her out. If she is miserable then go slow and be her "mom" again. Oh be her mom anyway.
LB, we seem to be on the same wavelength today. Second post that you've written so far that I agree with you 100%.
Just remember, if you are going to try and get her out, you have to have a ton of patience and a very big heart. As you know, if when you are out, the pull of that mindcontrolling organization is very, very strong. It will take lots of time and love.
Maybe let her experience the "love" of the congregation for a little bit and perhaps then love her the right way.
i noticed that in september 2001 there was a change in the contact adress in the jw literature.. for example, awake!
september 8th, 2001 says on page 5: would you welcome more information?
write watch tower at the appropriate adress.
They've been backing off the Watchtower name for a while now. I think that there has been a change in management or somebody finally won an argument.
