  Consequences of being a JW

  i've been thinking about what its like to be born and raised as a jw and the mistakes that parents make as an almost direct result of this cult.

  for one thing, the children are not allowed to think freely, and if they say or do one little thing their parents disapprove of, they are chastised and basically bullied into abandoning that thought or action.

  another thing is that no matter what you do, and no matter how good your reputation is among friends, teachers, administrators, etc if you don't want to go to meetings, and don't believe in this faith, they do what they can to make you feel lower then dirt for this and will often resort to verbal abuse, and sometimes violence to force you to believe in them and conform.

  hindus claimed the highest retention of childhood members, at 84 percent.

  the group with the worst retention is one of the fastest growing jehovah's witnesses.

  Were you ever afraid of demons?

  hello everyone, my story is a unique one i suppose but here it goes.,, ever since i was a little boy whenever i would voice my objections about this religion my parents would tell me im making satan happy and that i'm inviting demons into are house by saying and thinking things like this.

  my parents are such religious fanatics that it seems like nothing i do can ever be good enough for them.

  to this day they always claim that they come down hard on me like this because "they're trying to protect me".
