What passes for "spiritual food" in WTland is nothing but Tony Morris talking about the tightness of pants.

My wife is pregnant and it due is June and thinking of raising a child as a JW sickens me. Tough road ahead.

One of the things that started me on the scary road of waking up is when (like myself) my 5 year old did his fist Bible Reading in the Ministry School. I suddenly realized that I was alowing my Son to be programmed the same way I had been.

Don't panic like I did...it's all a huge joke and is only as significant as you allow it to be.

Thanks all for your support and kind words and insight. I am sitting here now trying to figure out how to bring up how I’m feeling with the wife. It's making that first step that’s the hardest. I don’t know how she will take it. Some posters suggested starting out with the blood issue as she is pregnant and this would be a "legitimate" concern. I was thinking of writing her a letter and spelling things out. That way i can say everything on my mind and have the ability to pick my words wisely.

Any suggestions?

I dont want to come off as a crazy apostate.. :)

Welcome Mikeypants!

"Kids" can be a great way to start the conversation....

"So, dear, I was thinking about what has been happening in these court cases... i.e. 'Candace Conti', 'Southern CA/ Campos'

"How do you feel about the way the WT / GB have not been really caring about how the kids are not protected? I don't want that to happen to our child..."

Give her tiny bits of info, ask questions over a long period of time, from the viewpoint of protecting your child.
