    Welcome Bitca there are thousands of people that had similar experiences to you and you will find lots of relevant threads on this board, old and new.
    I liked the way you decided to go to college and get a proper education, ignoring the JWs who always strongly discourage this.

    Not only do they not help you much in case of financial need, but I believe the real reason why they discourage this is because they greatly fear thinking educated people with prestige who can point out their lies and cause agitation. They dread criticism so much because their whole belief system is so shaky and can readily fall apart with the least scrutiny hence why all critics are promptly expelled and shunned.

    Hi bitca- I'm glad you're finally able to straighten your life out. It's too bad the adults in your life were more irresponsible than you were as a little girl. But their stupid decisions don't have to affect the rest of your life. Enjoy your freedom from abuse and I hope know the rest of your life is going to be good.

    Welcome To The Real World

    I have never posted before either. I have been reading the post for over three years now and have allways been afraid of the Borg finding me out. I know MerryMagdalene we grew up together so it is time for all of us to stand up and not worry about the Borg.
