I have jw father who hasnt spoken to me in over 2 yrs now. He moved to another state and didnt even write a card,,,,,leave message on our cell phone with his new number. He is diabetic , and who knows what could happen. Not to mention my health at times, my emotional health, and my children,,,,his grandchildren who have even in his JW mind have done nothing,,,,,,,he just doesnt care.
I know by his actions I am dead to him, and it hurts,,,,,it angers me

Didn't know some of those things, Dede, my heart goes out to you and the ever growing 'crowd' of people that are the victims here of the WTS. There seems to be 'bodies' everywhere, it just doesn't stop...

I wish as a group we could get some media -- newspaper, magazine or TV show that could do one of those investigative 'Expose's' on the slaughter of the family, by the WTS, because of their shunning practices.

Earlier that day I came across some pictures of my kids. I haven't had any contact with them for a very long time. I feel empty without them. They are 19 and 17 now and the oldest is getting married this fall. I have been informed, I am not to be present.

I am so sorry for you and them. They are hurting, too...they are just not able to express it. There are no winners here.

I, too have had almost no contact with my 3 daughters for 7 years. I know that very familiar hollow, empty feeling . 2 of mine are the same ages as yours, the other older one...thank god, is slowly coming around. We talk briefly once a week, she supported my re-marrying to a non-witness. It has been a most hurtful long, long road. I, too was not invited, nor wanted at marriages, graduations and even at times my JW X wife, would not even call me when one of our children was in the hospital ! In 2 cases it was so serious, they could have died...she said sorry, she was just real busy and nothing I could have done anyway... Good Christian, huh ?

I have been sending on occasion notes to my children to let them know that I still love them. Everytime I compose these notes, it is extremely difficult for me, because I don't expect a reply. Not that I am expecting one, but it's form of communication, and I would love to just even see a glimps of them.

Puter, I've been doing the same for years...not one single response. Writing to them...tears my heart out, because of all the good memories that come flooding back to me. Many times if I did get to ask...did you get my card? The reply was, "No, What card?" I know my X 'intercepted them. "A form of communication," I've used those exact words...they can never say, I didn't care or I did not write or I abandoned them.
I'll bet you don't even have current pictures of your kids, just like me. When long-time customers of mine ask, "How are your kids?" They pull out their pictures...then ask to see mine. They say, "I thought they were older, do you have any newer ones?" Well...and I start lying, saying these are some of my favorite ones...
The only advice I can offer is: take one day at a time, keep on trying to show your love for them, don't let them forget that you are alive and never "go quietly into the night." Never Surrender...

Should Ex's Care For Believing Parents?

by Englishman in

so when my dear old mum, who is well into her 80's, is no longer able to care for herself, what then?.

well, i guess we could build a granny-annexe and take care of her.

trouble is, i'm disfellowshipped, so i wonder how the local elders would react to that one.. same with my kid brother, he's an outcast too.. hmm.

and btw, i am neither DA or Df-so what is the excuse?

Neither am I -- it doesn't stop them from shunning me either...

Jehovah Will Get His Ass Kicked Really Good By Thor God of Thunder!!!!

i mean they are both imaginary, so do you think this wank-hovah god, who is so jealous, so pouting, so insecure that he needs our worship to be made whole.

could this loser in ever win a fight with thor???

he's pathetic,,i really mean it,,, what a loser!!

Rabbit

Abaddon, Thank you for the "Aspirin" . I , just being mortal and all I was really too tired to try anf deal with his rantings.

Mr. Kim sez:

I am not under the "covenant of death" that most are.

Abaddon,

I think I could get quite a few people to pay good money to see you prove this. You're delusional, seek help.

Ab, I'll put $5 on the table to see that, too.

Mr.Kim sez:

Rabbit and others
I have transcended beyond the human run organization know as the WTB&TS or of course, the Borg. Taking human form is bothersome but "WE" do what "WE" are requested to do.

Uh, yeah...OK. I see, so just when are you and Brown Boy getting married ? Be SURE to bring all your meds, too, y'all hear now?This will insure you don't get any further away from 'terra firma'.

Hebrews 13: 2 ----pretty much should explain it for you. Take care and "WE" will look in on you from time to time.
Mr KIM

Logan, somebody I really have a bad headache now...need some of your "asprin" bad !

"I think it's utterly appalling that the WTS can encourage JW parents to treat their non-JW or ex-JW children like pond-scum, and encourage these elderly folks to bequeath their homes and estates to the WTS instead of their non-JW or ex-JW children, but then turn around and tell these lovely old folks that if they require assistance, they should go to their families (including their non-JW or ex-JW children) before expecting any assistance from the Christian Congregation?."

It is a little hypocrtical isn't it ?

I would take care of any of my family -- even the one's shunning me...purdy sure it wouldn't work vice-versa. After all THEY are good Cristians, huh ?

THE SHAME IS ON "YOU" DANSK!!!

hi dansk.

i have read your commet on the subject "shame on you".. what you have seem to forgot is your family????

yes if you was not like a "bull in a china shop" you would have stopped and looked at the situation to ensure your daughter were not left behind in the w/t.. but what did you do?

Rabbit

Terri,

If I held a gun to my head and told my husband I would kill myself unless he left the WTS with me, he would let me blow my brains out. And all the while, he would reason that he did it because he loves me and knows he has the truth

Gee, that sorta fulfills Bible prophesy doesn't it? No natural affection...

Recently, I had back surgery. No one in my family even bothered to call or visit to see how things went. Luckily I did not die and was able to call them myself to let them know -- they nervously said, "Good." And quickly let me know they had food on the stove or it was meeting night, ya' know? I had forgotten...

They DO act just like Jesus...don't they ?

Dansk:

... and during the deposition, they asked for my screen name on JWD ... yep ... they are watchting ... and they watch other ex-JW sites ... so I have more to say on this ... and they can read it too ... because anything I say here may go on the record too.

...a chill just went down my spine when I read those words above. I figured there were individual lurkers who would try and find out the identity of those here...to 'lovingly' turn them in to the Elders for an 'adjustment' to their thinking...

But, I had NO idea it was an organised effort...damn...

But, thanks for the info...

If they find this thread offensive they simply can choose not to read it.

Come on now, with a title like that even I had to read it. I know it's what you believe and I really have absolutely no problem with that.

But, ya' know if somebody 'new' comes here (and luckily they are) they are hoping to find something that will help, it's OK to have fun with your new freedom. My new wife is always having to reassure me that this or that is OK...I enjoy a lot of new (to me) fun things in my life, things that normal (non-JW) people take for granted.

Would you agree that we want to help as many 'get out' as possible?

I may not agree with this type of joking about Jehovah or Budda...whatever, but I'm pretty strong 'cause I've had the time -- just like you -- to un-brainwash (is that a word?) or deprogram myself with the help of JW-D. Others, just getting here may get scared off...to them the name Jehovah carries a lot of power in their lives.

As far as the violent past history in the Bible...I simply don't know if it's literal or not. But, I've still got a lot to learn, you may be much farther down the road with your deprograming. Congrats...

That's my only concern and fear...please don't feel like I'm jumping on ya' Frankie.

Glad I met ya'...
