Dysfunctamentalism
by Incognigo Montoya inin reading through many posts over the last few months, i have started to form a viewpoint towards at least some of those witnesses/witness families, who are abusive and overzealous in their thinking.. arguably, many, if not all here, would say all pimi witnesses are overzealous in their thinking, but i sort of disagree with that.
without revealing too much about myself, my parents who are still in (father long time elder, mother regular pioneer), i consider stable and balanced in their views.
while i was shunned to a degree, after being disfellowshipped (they didn't go out to dinner or the movies with me or socialize with me publicly or very often privately, they didn't attend my wedding) they still spoke to me on the phone every few months, as i checked in on them and let them know i was doing alright (i moved out of state in my late teens).

Question—does anyone know...?
by careful inmost here are familiar with the history of the child abuse issue.
one past policy the org had was forbidding parents to report the child abuser to police or warn other parents in the congregation of the abuser.
they used to threaten dfing if such parents disobeyed the org in this matter.

watchtower comes along and changes the typical anti typical beliefs and with a stroke of the pen eliminates years of books and teachings.
