  How old were you when you left?

  i only know a handful of witnesses, but i do know several ex-witnesses.

  all of them left in their late teens, which (as i've read here) is pretty common.

  i know there are a lot of people here who left later in life.

  I probably will be going this year.. Make my parents happy. My mom said tonight that they will pay for me to get my First Aid and lifeguard License, (I want to be a paramedic) so I guess I can go this meeting for an hour.

  some recent threads on christmas celebrations got me to thinking about birthdays.

  do jws forbid any aknowlegement of birthdays at all, or just the trappings of birthdays, such as cake, gifts and singing happy birthday?

  what specifically is forbidden and what is ok?

  That's insane. How are baby showers different from wedding showers? Aren't wedding showers "worshipping" the engaged couple?

  As far as I know, wedding showers are allowed.. We've had some at our house for people.

  Do you think some sisters used the scriptures to...........................

  ..............................................................control their husbands and force them to put up with all sorts of things?.

  most of us here would agree that alot of men in the wts use and abuse the scriptures to keep women under the thumb.

  we have seen time and again how some married brothers like to have the wife and daughters 6 paces behind him.

  Guys in their teens have no intenion of sticking around for the long haul and you are not ready to settle down now either.

  And so all guys are the exact same? All teen guys are just in for the sex? Possibly where you live, but not so much around here, and denfinity not me. As I said eariler, I know quite a few couples that met in their mid teens and are now married and have kids.

  I know some of you might laugh at this, but missy and i are planning to 'stick around for the long haul' and even longer. We really love each other.

  Before I start, I'm Missy's boyfriend. Just to let you all know, that she asked this question strictly out of curiousity. As she said, we both have made up our minds when it comes to sex... We both feel that we have something great going on, we will be going out for 20 months on Monday! We have been thru lots of hard times, ie death in the family, not seeing each other for most of summer of 2002, because of my JW parents. We even opened a joint bank account last month. We know quite a few couples in our area, that met when they were 14/15/16 and are married now. One couple, are married and have 3 good kids. Granted, a lot of teenagers are immature and we will sex within a month of the beginning of their relationship and then break up with each other.

  But enough rambling, we have a decision, we are sticking to it, and that decision is private, unless we talk about it and post it later on. But please don't pre-judge teenage love, or missy and I, on our views or questions.
