FYI I am a 65 year old born-in and yes 1975 as the end was being pushed. Fred Franz the president of WTBTS was behind this. Many JWs quit their jobs, sold homes and ruined their lives as well as their childrens.

Cowboy boots were looked down on in Southern California but we lived in central California. The LA brothers just coudn't understand brothers wearing cowboy boots. My husband was a beach kid who ended up living in a redneck area. Thats how he eneded up wearing cowboy boots

Shared the picture of your shoe with my husband. His response I really like that shoe. It reminded him of the brother who came to him and said dress cowboy boots weren't accptable. We soon came to the conclusion "Who Cares"

A mistake in fading 4 months ago is coming back to haunt me... HELP!!
by ILoveTTATT inso today, two elders from a congregation i was in two years ago came by the house.
they said they wanted to talk to me about things that they have heard, and that they want to talk to me very quickly, as soon as possible.
perhaps before this week ends.. i don't know what to do!!

Don't meet with them, use the excuse you are suffering from depression and not able to discuss things at this time. Do not speak to them in person, as they will not respect boundries. They kept pushing until my son had a breakdown and still didn't stop. They do not control you no matter what they think. Hint around of depression to mom and let her know talkig to Elders could push you over edge. Mom may likely go into mama bear mode and start protecting you.
My son said looking back he would not meet with the Elders. It just gives them power. You have your dad convinced as I said above now try to get mom in protective mode. We mom are usually protective of those who want to hurt our children no matter how old our children are,

As a grandmother of two teen granddaughters, teens can be very emotional. They haven't learned to understand that life doesn't revolve around them. We need to shoe patience ans most do grow up some faster than others. I can tell you there is a big difference between 16 and 2O.

Steve 2 I forgot about 70s Kingdom News tracts and I actually took part in distributing them. I liked it because I really didn't have to have conversations with the householders. . Now as a householder it bugs me. I have a new prospective.

All I can say its not the same religion I grew up in. In the 4 years I haved lived in this state this is the first time we haved had a JW knock on our door. I actually feel a little insulted by the blitzing, I guess I have been out so long I didn't know how much it is a knock and run actvity now. It was not worth the effort for my husband and I to go thru the effort to answer the door. I had to grab our dog and restrain her before hubby answered the door, and the to have a pamplet shoved in his hand. We really didn't want to talk to her but felt we should of had that option. Oh well we now have another 4 years until the next knock,
