  Some reasons shunning is so very effective...

  i feel so sad about our friend ary, and my prominant memory of him is the sad look in his eyes when he spoke of his daughters.

  he was aware of how we lost our daughter, and he even felt bad complaining because at least his daughters were alive.

  i told him not to feel that way, that at least we could find a measure of closure, but he was on a constant roller coaster ride.

  our 17 year old son doesn't drive, so when he came home with a $103 ticket i was shocked, what did you do j-walk...no he was caught smoking across the street from his high school.

  it was a minor in possession of tabacco violation.

  jeez, $103 for that...i've seen hundreds of underage kids smoking, i had no idea this was a possibility.

  JW Jam Session at my house!

  by Sabine in

  2. friends

  a couple of weeks ago two jw teens came over to visit our son, they had all been good friends when we were in the cult.

  anyway, since we have not attended since 2000, and the elders and local jws seriously avoid us, i was quite surprized these two came over to say hi.

  a couple of nights later, they show up with electric guitars (our son plays drums) and they jam downstairs for a few hours.

  I just emailed Court TV

  court tv is televising the longo trial, he was a disfellowshipped jw that killed his family in oregon last year.

  i emailed them about my experience, my daughter completed suicide after the elders threatened to disfellowship her.

  i also mentioned the bryant family murder suicides in oregon, the husband was disfellowshipped and in a desperate financial situation like longo about 18 months ago.. court tv excepts emails from viewers and sometimes airs them.

  SUICIDE IN KH PARKING LOT

  by Sabine in

  1. social
  2. current

  last saturday, a former ministerial servant and pioneer committed suicide in the woodinville washington kingdom hall parking lot.

  he was disfellowshipped several years ago, and according to the old sister that related the story to me today, he was depressed because no one would talk to him.

  i don't know how i kept calm when she explained to me that "we couldn't talk to him...he was disfellowshipped.".
