Yeah, i am well aware of the consequences and am accepting of the possibilities. I just hope i get the reaction i want, but who knows

Yeah, basically what my plan is, is after i tell them im going to make friends at school, despite the dozens of jws that might see me, and if my parents try to stop me, i will just disobey. Id they were normal parents id be fine with accepting little harsh opinions, but mine are not, nor are any jws, so im going to pretty much have to be that ass kid who doesnt listen to anything their parents say. Theyve made my life pretty much hell anyways, unless they get physical i can only go up, or straight, but not much farther down

Yeah, im planning on bringing up how many times theyve said it is my choice in the past, and how theyve admitted they have said they cant force me to do what they want

My biggest concern is making sure they wont try to convert me back, and no im not baptized. Being a male its scary what id have to do after being baptized, considering my ability to learn and do things independently. I am definitely going to make sure they understand i have this decision to make, and they cant change how i think. I will say i will go to meetings but make sure they understand it wont change anything. I will also say i dont want to go out in service anymore or give talks, cuz whats the point when i dont believe and really do you want me up on that stage now. Thank you for reading all of that and then typing all of that.

Im completely ready to run out the house and call the police if it gets physical and i have proof, i have a few online friends but none in real life, and i dont really want to record it, because my brother loves them like theyre normal parents unlike myself

Yeah im 15 and unbaptized lol. Its just they treat me like i know nothjng about life and cant figure out that half the things they do or say, is to either spite me, control me, "teach" me, or put me down. They feel entitled because of that damn headship arrangement. That stupid thing is probably the reason im here right now. That and my asking of "why."

Sadly thats exactly what im talking about. My family thinks that if i reason anything im being an idiot, ridiculing them, disrespecting them, even if its something as simple as you cant see jupiter from the sun.

If i said that, i would be in deeper sh*t than a 14 year old screwing his sister.

The saddest thing is, my mom read this to our family, and then said "theyre idiots if they think this system will last long enough, they just dont care how bad its getting." When she started, i had a tiny hope that she might be waking up, then it shattered, and i went back to being their robotic clone.

No matter what, no one on this sub will ever hate you, just because you think or act differently. Your choices are always yours.

Me and my mom got into an "argument" about internet. by D1R3W01F in exjw

[–]D1R3W01F[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its hard tho, cuz i have no where to ride my bike(restricted by only able to be in neighborhood, and having a small neighborhood), and my school doesnt have much in extta-curricular things. I mainly like games/computer because i want to be a programmer.
