Witnesses and child abuse
by MissBehave inthis is prompted by something i read in another thread about jw kids getting beat because they got caught with love letters.
the acceptance of physical punishment within this group is chilling.
"spare the rod, spoil the child" does not mean "beat your kid and leave bruises".

Meeting Clothes
by Nosferatu ini absolutely hated the concept of "meeting clothes".
all my meeting clothes were hand-me-downs from other brothers.

plasma exchange in my grandson
by starfirern` into liberal elder: my 10yr grandson has guillan-barre' syndrome and is in icu on a ventilator and the doctors want to do a plasma exhange on him to help the disease to be treated and for him to get well.
it is similar to dialysis and would not require a transfusion.
it is the only way to treat this horrible disease and make him well(hopefully) and to lessen any possible long term effects as this is his 3rd bout in 7 yrs.

Very superstitious writing on the wall
by joelbear inother people have ghosts and goblins and fairy godmothers.. jw's have demons.. demonized chairs, forks, pictures, pages from books, dolls, etc.
etc.. the most aggravating demon related thing my mother ever did was throw away my fantastic of collection of toys from around the world.
i was about 10 and joined something called the kid's explorer's club.

What do you believe in now?
by janelle ini just stumbled on this site today, and am i ever glad i did!!!
i was raised as a witness, my mom being a witness and my dad a non believer.
