quotes:.
-- therefore, explain that a parent's decision an a child's associates would not be based on religion, but on the young one's conduct ... it will probably help if you acknowledge that this does not mean that all other youths whom your children are around in the neighborhood or at school are no good.
some of them may be pleasant and decent, as some of your neighbors, relatives, and workmates are.

i have to say i am surprised and am quite saddened to hear how many jdub marriages fall apart when one partner becomes an "unbelieving mate" or even an "apostate.
" i thought i might post my thoughts on my thinking process during the time my hubby, bethelyellowdollarbag, in my jdub thinking moved along the path from an "unbelieving mate" to an "apostate" over the course of 30 years before i finally woke up to ttatt.

JGNAT, i wish you lived near me or vice versa. Have read so many of your posts and I think you're a really great person, and your presence here is invaluable. ((HUGS))
so being that once upon a time i was one of the elites, a regular pioneering, high & mighty jw, i still have the "keys to the kingdom" as i've always called them and was bored this past saturday night and had a couple non-jw friends (the real & unconditional kind) in my car.
as we were driving around trying to find something new and exciting to do we passed by the road which leads to my kh.
and then i thought why not go over there, show my friends what this cult looks like from the inside?.
wish i was one of your friends... that wouldve been fun...

thankyou rubadubdub for sharing this - even on a private/ annonymous forum, it can be hard to open yourself up. xx

the husband just gave me the new march km (im using it folded up as a coaster at the moment) and a new "blood card" to complete, along with a copy of a set of instructions for how to fill it out and a letter from wts to every baptised publisher.
i said to him "i wont be needing that" and gave it back to him, and he just said, well just throw it out then - no overreaction yay :o) without telling him, about a month ago, (i tore up my existing no blood directive.
our kids have never carried around "identity cards" we were never that diligent about it).
thanks everyone! x Ive updated on a new thread.... SKY GREEN
i was browsing youtube and it was interesting to see lots of jw covering the new caleb/sophia song "pray anytime".
they need to add this to the songbook.
