Another powerful observation about Witness kids: It's amazing how quickly the "truth" can evaporate amidst them.
While you and I talk about healing and moving on and agonize about changing our whole lives, many of these kids
react as if the organization never meant anything to them.
I knew a young sister who left ( an honor roll student with long term Witness parents, elder dad and aux pio mother)
who acted astonished that the congregation would df people for "living together". To her, this seemed like an odd custom from
a medieval age - DESPITE BEING TOTALLY RAISED IN THE "TRUTH", complete with all field service, meeting attendance,
and home family study. She got df'd and thus far despises her Witness background.
A relative of mine lamented that their son was doing 'so well in the congregation' ( raised in the truth) - UNTIL he met his
new worldly girlfriend. Now, it's total and complete abandonment of everything Witness related - as if it never existed.
Talk about "snapping"! He now decries Witnesses as sleazy and dishonest - and that many 'worldly people' are better.
Off topic, I am tempted to wonder if the behavior of young Witnesses could get so awful that the Society will feel pressure to
actually start giving up assemblies.
It's sad and amazing how a superficial religion can evaporate - when it's spent years emphasizing rules and hours counted,
and meetings attended - with charity and compassion ignored.
I see new Watchtower articles on youth - same nonsense, different day. They just don't get it............
