College and EX-JW Discontent....Questions and Stats
by teenyuck in*many* ex-jws say that they were robbed of an education due to the wtbts and as a result, they feel that their families and the wt screwed up their life by depriving them of the opportunity to go to college and therefore, earn a high salary at a job they love.

Need help...I am so confused....(this will probably be rambling)
by stephaniesays ini started going to church.
i am going to a baptist church just because they have a great youth program at this one, and my daughter (12) has really gotten into it, which i think is a positive thing.
i have never really taught her anything about religion because i never knew what i believed, and i am having to confront now, what exactly it is that i do believe.

Got back from my sister's wedding on Monday (long)
by stephaniesays ini had previously posted about my jw parents making my sister miserable over marrying a catholic...well, the wedding was on the 27th.
my sister and her fiancee (now husband) went out of their way to make my ms stepfather and pioneer mother happy.
he gave up a catholic wedding, they gave up a church wedding, they wrote their own vows and worked it to where the man performing the ceremony didn't do the prayer but my sisters husband did (so that he could pray "through" jesus).

JW Children and Immunizations
by LDH inwell the not-so-little baby (19 mos) got his next round of shots last night, 5 in all.
he was rightfully indignant, and let the nurse know it.. i mentioned it to my dad in passing, and he was saying that another family member doesn't allow any immunizations of their child.. this person is a df'd-jw hater, and yet the some of the brainwashing has hung on.
now, all 3 of us children are immunized, but i can't discount the brainwashing that the medical establishment has taken at the hands of the wbts.
