i read a few apostate books during my research as a jw...after confessing in private to a best friend that i'd read them i got snitched on and they ran and told the elders....prats!
this led to a judicial and a 6 month probation, wasnt allowed to do carpark duty (sobs) or michrophone duty (baawl) for 6 months nor could i answer up at meetings which led to tongue wagging, could go on doors though... a bit strict huh.. also know of a 6 year old who handed in her dad for speaking to apostates!
was you snitched on?

you know - being just a newbie here i have to say that even though many of you have been mentally put off balance (just like me!!
) that you all sound really nice and i want to be a part of this so much - it blows my mind..... one thing that i found very hard to deal with was the abuse that my two sisters went through at the hand of my uncle a jw.
the family covered it up and that man is still serving in another congregation - every time i see him with young children around him i feel sick.....i think he should have been removed!

Your far too polite ..:)
When it was brought up - years later he denied everything
And they believed him right?
It really wrecked my family life....
Arrgghhhh

i remember a family in the hall that had two kids back at bethel, and they got a sneak copy.
"The colour didn't improve the writing."
HAha...noticably.

Prisca your not doing too bad, for the first 2 years I was out I hardly met any exjw, by the third year I had met about 30 ish. It grows and grows till you lose count.
Laughing at Lilacs.
BTW Third the PO's daughter you met moved to the outskirts of london with her hubby and now has 2 lovely daughters.
