    Cultivate, too, habits that contribute toward stability. Instead of letting your room become messy, keep it orderly and neat.

    OK kids, you heard it here first -- if you don't clean your room you could become emotionally unstable!

    I remember sitting in my parents' living room reading the "Your Youth" book with my mom. I couldn't even read the part about sex aloud. Looking back, it's absolutely hilarious. No wonder I'm so screwed up!

    Yikes!

    Boy am I glad I wasn't raised as a JW so I at least had a more "normal" introduction into it!

    I remember I studied a bit with a boy of about 10. Initially i started with the Great Teacher book, but the things i had to read to him (and have him read to me) were total bananas. It was so condescending and patronising- we had to move onto something else- i think it was certain chapters of the YPA book which were a little better.

    OMG!

    When I started reading this thread I was ready to kick the computer screen, I was so mad!!!

    I remember growing up with all that bull shit crap!

    However, that was so funny the bit in the new kids book about the demons enjoying boys and girls playing with eachothers nether regions! How crazy can that be! I'm still laughing now with a mental picture of demons 'watching' people and getting all hot under the collar!

    You've got to hand it to the WTBTS, they know how to write funny stuff!

    I remember placing that book with a fellow school mate. He got so made when coming the 4th chapter on Masturbation that he threw the book in the floor... I wish I never have read and applied it... It is not normal for a boy to go years without masturbating. glad I am enjoying it now though.

    So according to the wackytower in the '60's women are just like stupid cows?

    Hey are cows stupid?

    So glad I'm out of it.

    hm I wonder Do demons rent porn? Or do they get it for free?

    I have a picture in my mind of a demon in a raincoat walking into a pornshop and renting a few flicks.

    It's quite obvious Ruby that you were draining you nervous energy and your resistance to satans influence was diminished. Or did you just go blind??
