I was raised as a JW. My mom started studying when I was a baby and was baptised in the early 70's. My dad was a "nonbeliever". My aunt is a JW and 2 cousins are elders. I stopped going to meetings when I was about 15 yrs old after my folks divorced and I went to live with my dad. My older sister was baptised, DF'ed, reinstated and now inactive. Our mom is causing many problems for her and will not let things be. My mom has been a devoted witness for over 30 yrs.
