    I feel for those of you who went through hell resisting as kids!

    As an adult trainnee, I felt like crap for resisting. The other 20% of not taking the plunge was due to missing meetings. But the pressure was enormous and I didn't have any jw family/friends/spouse. It was very heavy on the mind and body.

    Pressuring someone repeatedly, whether a child or adult, will only cause that person to make a hasty decision that is likely a very wrong one, or one that can backfire onto those doing the imposing.

    I wish I had resisted. But why would you? You want to survive Armageddon right?

    I did not resist... but I felt resigned when I did it. A couple of days before I turned 15.

    I successfully resisted for many years. Very glad to have done so!
