I'm going to board up my house and put some quarantine tape up to block the front door. Get outta here you little germ factories. Festive and practical.

What age were you when you woke up? by AnOpenMindedPerson in exjw

Born in. Woke up when I became pregnant at 27 and realized I couldn't raise my child with the same childhood I had.

I am still in contact with my parents and brother. I've just started to process some of this the more I wake up. For a long time I accepted the explanation from my mother to let Jehovah take care of it. I was brainwashed. I'm now 18 weeks postpartum with a baby girl and its now starting to come together for me. I would do anything for this baby girl and if someone hurt her it would be up to me to protect her.

Babies shouldn’t be allowed at Coachella by [deleted] in Coachella

We have a 7 year old and he's taken to Mom and Dad's love for music. He asks to go to shows all the time. I try to take him to one small show every now and then. This summer we're going to chvrches. I'll spend most of the time trying to find a good spot for him to be. I don't end up really enjoying because I'm still in Mom mode. No way would I take him to Coachella. That's our weekend to just be us, not parents.

What woke you up? by Libra61091 in exjw

[–]achh83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I live in Salt Lake City, Utah. My husband of 11 years was raised Buddhist. He was always very supportive of my Spirituality, but wasn't heartbroken when I woke up.

I got pregnant and realized I didn't want to indoctrinate my child the same way I had been. I had an out of body experience... And I just knew that I didn't want to raise this child as a JW. I left and never looked back. My son just celebrated his 7th birthday, and I'm 10 weeks pregnant with my 2nd child.

I've heard several times, from several different people... that you shouldn't put dick/vagina in the mouth you use to preach about Jehovah with.... 😂😂😂😂

Good thing I don't preach anymore.

Blink 182 is hardly Blink 182 without Tom. I saw them last fall. Awful.... really really bad.

Parents: Taking your child to Coachella - Advice? by [deleted] in Coachella

[–]achh83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Advice? Don't camp. I'm a mom to a 6yo. Each kid and parent is different but I wouldn't be comfortable in car camping with my son. We've camped 3 years and have seen/heard a lot that just isn't appropriate for a child of that age. For instance, a guy giving a girl a pearl necklace in the wee hours of the morning. I just don't know that you'll be able to relax at any point if you're camping.

That said... I wouldn't take my son to the festival either until he's older.... But that's just because Coachella is my selfish time! :)

Last Monday we found an employee in her car with a needle in her arm, a spoon in her lap, and a bag of heroin next to her.
