a new one
by hijosdelawatch ini'm still inside because of family, friends... all my life is there.
i used to have doubts (one year ago) but now i only have certainties about the org.
another reason for staying, at least for now, is i'm living at home with my jw mother and she allowed me to go to college.. i seem to everyone in the congregation a normal witness but when i sit down in the meetings i do know 99% what i listen to is just the same failed prophecies and doctrines repeated always in the same way.. i'm now being "persuaded" to accept my appointed as a ms. though i'm not doing nothing special to get it, i'm serving in a foreign language territory simply because i couldn't hold on with the pressure of my family and elders from my congregation.

Social Security benefits for dependant children
by moshe ini went to the social security office and asked for my retirement earnings benefit printout, as i am planning on signing up at age 62 next year.. many people don't know this, but if you have a dependant child (some stipulations apply) under the age of 18 living in your home and you claim them on your tax return, you can get a social security check for them until they turn 18.. how much is it?
it will be 50% of your normal retirement age benefit amount- two or more children will get you more- up to the maximum family amount- which might be less, if you have a spouse drawing off your earnings record.. so, if you know of anyone who fits in this category who isn't getting a check for their child, have them go to the ss office and apply, asap!
i believe, they pay retroactive benefits.

I'm sick of the human race!
by watersprout ini really am... just been attacked for posting on a dog rescue picture.
the dog was in a rta and as i was eating my dinner and couldn't see the pictures, heading or comments regarding the dog properly i posted that it could be ''dog bait injuries''... which in the area i live is a nasty problem which is rearing it's ugly head.
dogs are being stolen from back gardens to be used as bait.

Do You Believe It Is Wrong To "Discipline" Your Child In A Physical Way?
by minimus inmy grandkids were being mouthy and they learned a new phrase, "shut your mouth".
it could be directed to their parents, grandparents or anyone who said something they didn't like.
they are 2 and 4 years old and beautiful children.
