TALLON- Thanks for the link to this Reddit experience of the JW boys being kicked out by their parents. I posted a comment on that thread over on Reddit. This has happened thousands of times through the years by self righteous, uncaring JW parents all over the world. And it's disgusting. This JW cult and WT Society ROB JW parents of any empathy, sympathy, decency and causes parents to actually treat their exiting JW children inhumanely to the extreme.
I experienced this with my own son when my JW ex-wife kicked my son out of her house at age 18 because he didn't want to attend meetings anymore. He called me up sobbing that his mom had kicked him out and he asked if he could come live with me. I told him " of course son ! I don't care what religion you are you're my son , I love you !"
So he came to live with me and we cried together as he fell into my arms sobbing. It was one of the most emotionally charged experiences my son and I ever experienced. It traumatizes exiting JW children for years because they feel one parent doesn't love them anymore. Essentially the JW parent chooses the WT Society & JW cult - over the child. My son lived with me the next few years until Mrs. Flipper & I got married and he had a roomate and girlfriend by then who supported him as well. But we have stayed close all these years and are like blood brothers, we hike together in the mountains , play music together- and we both know we will ALWAYS have each others back in dealing with JW relatives.
I am so glad that A&E , Leah Remini, and other mainstream shows are exposing this freaking cult for what it is - a criminal organization that breaks up families. It's disgusting. The pain is very, very real and very , very sad. We need to support anybody- young or old who exit this dangerous cult. Especially the young who get put out on the street by sick, disgusting excuses of parents who need their parent cards taken away
