Graduating college May 14. Update on Getting my GED and going to college thread from 5 years ago.
by noni1974 inhttp://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/187163/getting-my-ged-can-go-college.
i started this topic 5 years ago letting everyone know i had decide to get my ged and go to college in hopes of getting an education so that i could have a career instead of just a job.
i wanted fulfillment and a future, not just another job that has no really future in it.

Stress on young ones
by LHS123 ini had a horrible conversation with my 14 year old last night which i regret.
im still in but doubting more and more every day.. she is recently baptized.
she is outgoing and gorgeous and make friends easily, although not so much with the sisters in our hall, who pick her up and drop her again regularly , leaving her out of parties etc but then bringing her back into the circle, dropping her again...and so on.

You seem to be being inconsistent. That's only to be expected when you first learn TTATT.
Are you glad your son has left? Do you want the same for your whole family?
Both my kids and I have left...we all left in our own time and stayed out.
Having school friends is important and putting it on Fb is not really harmful. Let her find her own way and each step out of the WT view as progress and positive.

Gttm,
Sorry to hear how you're feeling. Sometimes spouses do not wake up. But sometimes they do. I think it's a good suggestion by a few for you to stop going to meetings and take your boys to the park or swimming instead.
But if she still goes you may have to accept that she won't wake up. Many couples live like this.
OnTheWayOut is a poster that left but his wife stayed in....they are still married and they just deal with their circumstances.

Well done you're doing really well. You also need to develop a relationship which is fun and give her good memories....like playing cards or board games too.....step right away from education and religion. Go swimming and visit museums.
I taught my son TTATT when he was 11 and we read jwfacts.com together.....but it was only possible because we have a close relationship away from religion.
He is 13 now and stays home when his dad goes to the meetings.

Thank you for redirecting me to the right organization!
by economy inthank you, jw.net and cofty, for redirecting me to the right organization!.
when i posted why did god permit scriptures to be corrupted?
then i thought, if there is an organization that believes all scriptures are corrupted (which obviously makes it enemy of all religions), that organization is not ordinary, but gutsy, lionhearted, and worthy of close examination!

Bloodlust
by berrygerry ini'm about half-way through the novel "watch how we walk," written in 2013 by a born-in, jennifer lovegrove.. absolutely worthwhile read.. does this paragraph sum up jw-land?.
"i was paranoid again, like i had been back home, as though someone was scrutinizing and judging me.
although i was alone, it reminded me of being at the kingdom hall.

Village Idiot, I got Df'd in April 2012, and woke up in Feb 2013.
I tried to wake up my fellow Df'd brothers and sister as we were all attending all the meetings and trying to get RI'd.
I left WT in Nov 2013....

The year that I was Df'd three others were Df'd from the same cong that same year.
Never mind the other congs in the circuit.
When you listen to my JC recording you will understand why.
If you want to hear it and you haven't yet just post a request and I will bump the thread or embed the file.
