  i'm a 17 year old from scotland.

  can i just say this site is absolutely brilliant.

  finally found people with open minds and free thought that doesn't just consist of "well the wt told me this so it must be right".. my story is that i'm just like any other child of a jw...brought up into a life of indoctrination where "the world's" thinking is automatically wrong.. that is until i was 14 - a light turned on in my head.

  Even coins.... Is that a "subtle" reminder to make generous donations?

  They're getting good at this, it looks very professional, and that's pretty worrying.

  Raising Children in more than one language

  by SonoftheTrinity in

  1. social
  2. family

  i recently told my wife that i am speaking only in the jamaican dialect from now on in my house because she has failed to teach her children her native language because she has put religion first, manners and discipline second, their education third, and her native language somewhere at the bottom.

  while i am not jamaican, nor have i been to jamaica i lived in a jamaican rastafarian community as a rastafarian.

  i am now orthodox christian as are many rastafarians and i still consider myself culturally rastafarian but no longer identify with their heresies.

  We live in Scotland but we only speak French at home. My 4yo daughter's bilingual (well... she speaks and understands both languages at the same level), she picked up the language at nursery and via TV and friends. So far so good. Kids are really amazing. I wish I still had a brain like hers.

  one of the things that keeps me going is thinking about the things my family and i will be able to do once we are all out, together, and free at last.

  (and we will be out together, i'm staying positive!).

  i soooo look forward to christmas.
