Argument with my Child "Why did I stay in the Organization so long?" Anger and Bitter Feelings.
by RottenRiley inlast night my third oldest child wanted to know why we stayed in the organization so long.
child is a third year college student enjoying all the classes this "wicked system" has to offer, the insatiable appetite for learning makes him want to argue and debate, i don't have the energy to debate because i don't feel good with all life has thrown our way.. .
"the only reason i went to meetings so long was because grandma and grandpa needed somebody to take them to meetings and cobe aunt and uncle and secretary aunt and uncle refused to talk to grandma for years, otherwise i would have stopped attending the kingdom hall because the kids were assholes and i was always the one who had to make "first contact", "i was the one who had to go around and meet and greet newbies while the regular jw wall-flowers (calebs) ignored all the visitors and new persons visiting our kingdom hall.

I don't care now... Losing false friends... I already kind of lost my mom
and dad...
It would be an interesting experiment. Those who have listened to me have nothing to lose, or do have something to lose but already knew ttatt and are keeping quiet to not disturb the family.
I guess telling people ttatt right now is not good timing... Most people's cult fears are in the screaming point because of the Vatican-UN situation.
Thank you JWN for quickly debunking that!!
I just posted freedom of mind and thr BITE model as my main status.

I just want to leave! What will trying to stay accomplish, anyways? Coming back to be witch-hunted? To come back to nonsense? I find it hard to stomach reading a WT, let alone going back to meetings and serve-us.
Even if I come back, my mom will shun me. It would only be a matter of time before I wouldn't be able to handle it again and tell her something she does not want to hear. Rinse, repeat.
I want to leave, get the hell out of the cult... And try to make as many of my friends possible aware of ttatt.
It saddens me to see my family trapped in the mind-controlling cult, but freedom from the cult has a high price tag.
I will still have communication with dad, so I am happy about that. Hopefully Hassan can help me, and we can make a team for an intervention.
If that still does not work, I will have "fought the fine fight".

I don't know if I already had the H1N1 when I got the flu shot last (2009), but three days later I had horrible physical reactions to it. I have never felt so bad in my life... Was it a reaction? Did I have the H1N1 already? I don't know...
Will I continue taking vaccines? Yep... Although I would advise a doctor of previous reactions. They would probably make me wait for an hour to monitor me for reactions, and if I had any, I would go back to the doctors.

I have asked my dad what he was going to do... And I reminded him that originally, I was freaked out by the fact that the JW's had changed the Bible, and that I am being judged for trying to defend it!!
I asked him what he was going to do afterwards, and he just said he was going to reduce his communication with me, and that he wanted me to not talk to him about religion. I asked him if he had allowed himself to be indoctrinated again. I sensed that it was probably a matter of the UN attacking the Vatican. I asked him and he said, yes. I then told him, well the JW's are no different. The report could have just as well been a condemnation of JW's... For doing exactly the same things... Hiding evidence, moving the elders...
I also asked him to review JW predictions. I told him about 1975, about 1986 (year of peace), 1991(?) when the Berlin wall fell. I asked him how many times he would allow himself to be lied to? What about when 2015, 2016, 20.... 2024 comes and nothing has happened?
I think it has worked... A bit..
Now, I just need something to tell my mom. Do I ask straight up what she would do if I am df'd?

So... It's been a complicated week. I just want things to be over with... I want to go and hang out with my parents and just spend some time with them... I will not be blackmailed into living a lie. My dad would like me to see if there are ways in which I can avoid having the family break up, but it's two passionate people (my mom and I) who have diametrically opposed viewpoints. The thing is, I know I am right in exiting the cult, my mom believes she is right by staying.
I just want to be out officially. That way, I can tell my soon-to-be-not-friends why and possibly help them. THEN I will have nothing to lose, and you know what they say about picking a fight with someone who's got nothing to lose...

So... yeah what should I tell the elders as to the reason why I want to postpone?
I should have a specific time and date too... for it to be postponed.

I told a girl months ago that the JW's had changed the Bible, then the second witness was my mom when I exploded last week. I was trying to tell her hints about how she was being controlled (by watching the Truman Show)...
she went the next day to the elders...
