Was she leaving a jw husband at the same time she was leaving the Watchtower? If so, two birds, one stone.

My stepson got me hooked on the Walking Dead. It's weird that I never liked Science Fiction/Horror until middle age. I still have to turn my head for gross scenes though.

So far the only decoration we've done for Halloween is a dummy. My husband took an old pair of jeans and work shirt and stuffed them with leaves. The ends of the sleeves go into a pair of work gloves, and the pant legs go into an old pair of work boots. The head is a basketball wrapped in black electrical tape, and the face is drawn with white auto body touch up paint. He's perched on a lawn chair at the front of our house. For some reason kids find it fascinating and are usually more interested in it than candy.
This year we're also going to cut different shaped eyes into toilet paper rolls and insert glow sticks to put in the bush and trees in our yard. I found the idea on Facebook, and it really looks creepy! We usually have about 500 kids for trick or treat, because the Kiwanis Club has a cake walk afterwards. We may not have as many this year, because it is going to be held on a different day.

Secret Watchtower Letter: PARENTS HAVE MAIN RESPONSIBILITY FOR CHILD'S SAFETY
by steve2 inin a separate thread, cedar's response to the watchtower's hot-off-the-secret-press-to-elders letter on child abuse is featured.
cedar's article is a powerful, well-composed overview of that letter.. tellingly, in the watchtower letter you will not find any direct exhortation requiring parents to first go to the elders when their child discloses sex abuse.
no, the watchtower is much too clever to directly state what parents should or should not do.

What really galls me about this letter is that the Watchtower says that it is the responsibility of parents for a child's safety all the while refusing to warn parents of the predators in their midst.

The best way to help any JW out is to remain active
by Most Noble inattacking from the outside will always prove to be unproductive.
it is more effective to remain inside the domain while raising people's consciousness and letting them see all the flaws behind the farce.
i have tried it and i have gotten 47 people out in 6 months, while i am still seen as a publisher in good standing.. .

JWN's Tuesday, AKA Tim Kilgore on Youtube stopped counting at 400 for the number of people he helped out of the Watchtower cult. And he did it while outside of the organization.

@Z-Monster:
I have lurked on this site and its predecessor since shortly after the U.N. fiasco. Oompa's story is very moving. I cannot imagine how much intestinal fortitude it took for him to get out of bed every morning. To all of Oompa's friends and family, you have my deepest sympathy, May he finally be at peace.
Welcome to JWN! Oompa would be thrilled that you've been reading here and that he prompted your first post here!

classic oompa - "food tastes the same"
by BroMac ini was looking at some older threads from oompa i didnt have to look to long before i came across this cracker of an op http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/friends/144083/1/hindered-prayers-says-my-wife-so-i-stopped.
ps could someone make it clickable please.

Thanks for starting this thread. After having cried for three solid days, I started thinking about some of the funny things Oompa used to say. The one that cracked me up the most was when he bought a cellphone specifically to talk to ex and exiting jws. He called it his apostaphone, and he talked on it in his apostatruck.
