  Did anything a householder said ever make an impression on you?

  by Alleymom in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  coming at this as a householder rather than an ex-jw, i'd love to hear from any of you about comments from householders that made an impression on you, back when you were active in the door-to-door work.

  since the jw's first knocked at my door 13 years ago, i've done my best to give them something to think about every time they knock at my door.

  i always introduce myself by name and try to get their names.

  Are you a special case?

  by JH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  whatever you do, are you always the exception to the rule?

  does it ever happen that you see a doctor and he can't understand your problem, that you are a unique case that he never seen before?

  or if you go to the garage with your car, and have a problem that no one ever had?.

  Are You Ashamed Of The Way That You Disciplined Your Child?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  most articles in the publications recommended physical punishment, (corporal) when disciplining children.

  the scripture says that "he will not die" if you beat him.

  so many parents literally beat their children.
