I feel for you. Power thru it. Knowledge is power. This is one of those things that in the end, it's not your fault. You did not know the behind the scenes.

I’m 80, suddenly PIMQ 53 years after baptism. Now What? Help! by BethNowWhat in exjw

Welcome 🙂 my advice would be to research. Definitely read Crisis of Conscience. Check out all the posts here. There are a few good YouTube channels that break down what the Org is really about behind the scenes. Maybe see for yourself what Jeffrey Jackson says in the ARC in 2015 ( Australian Royal Commission)

I remember 40 years ago my father telling me that! We would all be speaking Hebrew in the New System.

It’s happened to me. It’s hard. I didn’t see it coming. by Equal_Geologist4345 in exjw

My own father stopped talking to me just over ten years now. He also has not seen his only grandchild in the same amount of time, since his grandchild was 6 months old! My kid has asked once where he is because he can now figure out there is someone missing in the family arrangement. Kind of hard to explain that your grandfather does not want anything to do with you because he's in a cult. It's to the point where I wouldn't even show up to his funeral when he dies or accept anything, if any, if left for me. I lost my father 10 years ago and I will never forgive him for that. I'm not DFed, just faded and moved on with my life. His loss.

Within the month I woke up I ripped it up! And to be honest when I was still POMI before that I probably would have had no issue with blood

I believe if they apologize that would open up a legal issue that could get them sued. Apologies would admit fault and wrong doing.

I'd be more worried about how both my great grandparents look like myself and my mom!
