Corporal punishment and JWs
by YellowLab inhow many of you were spanked, beaten or in some other way physically corrected as a jw?.
my mother used to beat me with her hands, shoes, belts and various other items within reach when i misbehaved.
many times it was borderline abuse.. do jws teach to beat their kids into submission using physical means?

My mother (coldhearted JW she is)
by YellowLab inthis is really bothering me, and i have a need to vent.
is it normal for grandparents to not take an active interest in their grandchildren?

How do I tell my family I'm no longer a JW?
by YellowLab inthis subject has bothered me for 5 years now.. eventually the day will come where i'll need to tell my folks i'm no longer a jw.
my oldest son (who is 3) is getting to the age where he talks about everything from birthday cakes to christmas trees.
we were able to get away with birthdays and holidays so far, but now is becoming increasingly difficult to stop him from talking about them when the family's around.. should i write a letter?
