  I would like to sayts untrue. BUT I have a df.d nephew that the Elders wont reinstate because he is living with his inactive mother and brother. Elders make the rules as they go along.

  the wts has always included minors and adults in the same categories - publisher and baptized.. i am interested in knowing how many minors, approximately, are included in the publisher count.

  and, at what age a person started publishing.

  what age was the youngest publisher reported?.

  Disassociation revealed what type of man my father really is.

  by Paul Mooney in

  2. experiences

  i began my exit from the jehovah’s witness organization about 5 years.

  i was a 4th generation born-in, with all the baggage that comes with having the “spiritual heritage” attached to the group.

  i was an elder/bethelite/pioneer/whatever other useless privilege there was, i had no family or friends outside of the organization… my entire life was that org.

  Born in 68 years ago. Faded off and on until I was 40. Elders treated my son in such a nasty way I quit and never went back. Move across US and now no one cares.

  Sorry when elders and CO get involved the s__t rolls. My husband and I suggested such action to our child quickly realized we had made the worst mistake of our lives. The good result , us, our grown children and grandchildren are no longer considered JWs. Now we have "real" lives.

  The sister Flipper mentions was very close to my family. She was wonderful woman and had a great unbelieving husband. How do I know all this, this woman's husband and my dad dropped their wives at the meeting and take me for a drive early 50s. My children grew up thinking she was another Aunt.

  I was also at that assembly
