During the Australian Royal commission BCG said that she prayed to Jehovah to make the sexual abuse from her father stop. Her prayers were never answered.
I was being bullied once, my jw dad read me the scripture from St Paul that says "be peaceable with all men as far as it depends upon you".. then said, if you can't be make peace, punch him in the nose, his eyes will water and then he won't be able to see so you can finish him. Took the advice, won the fight, guy never messed with me again.
My daughter has dealt with bullying at school because of her lack of religion. When she was 8 a group of friends asked what church she went to and when she replied with "none" they began shouting at her. She said they called her stupid and said she was going to hell. The only one to come to her defense was a JW girl who said the same thing I tell my kids all the time - "It's OK for people to believe different things."
I've been bullied, I hate that. I also hate how adults (worldly or not) let that happened as if it was normal. BUT... Being an adult, I know that most of the "real life" bullies, and just kids, sometimes suffering themselves... Of course there are some "true perverts" in the pack, but often the bully is unsecure himself. Anyway, I see here how "Christians" they are, submitting to "the others are bad", instead of doing like Jesus and trying to reach the heart of the "lost soul" with love... (Which is an utopia, but at least have some sense... I mean a "noble" sense, some good will). Here the bad are bad because not being a Geee-Dumb, and NO LOVE AT ALL towards the "bully" which is the one "we must love" (according to dJeezuss himself: what the point of loving people loving you ? Love your enemy, blabla, etc.)... Finally Zach sang it well: "KNOW YOUR ENEMY" !
I would really love an episode where Caleb plays videogames and decides to be an apostate. Then see this family try to cover how he is a minecraft youtuber having his best life.... So who makes the spin off?
Lol. Yeah....it would be great if they ACTUALLY showed what they would ACTUALLY do to an "apostate" gamer. Because if you be a gamer.....you are an apostate. Let's face it..... This gamer child would be so....so.....barraged with "guilt and shame". Thing is, Minecraft doesn't REQUIRE this or that. You're having fun or you aren't.....no fakery involved. Unlike the required FAKE happy, happy, joy, joy the JW organization offers.
i used to laugh off the names and insults other kids used to call me and some of them were really mean but funny at the same time idk why i found them funny. for example they used to call me “testiculo de jehova” which means literaly jehova’s testicle bare in mind that witness in spanish sounds pretty similar to testicle. witness = testigo testicle = testiculo
That was my experience too and I think it partly depends on your own personal way of dealing with things. I saw others really struggle and were even bullied by other JWs in school for being the particularly strict JW and not just trying our best to blend in like most of us did.
I showed this to my son. He said he was bullied at school when he identified as a JW... but he said he thought rather than praying to someone he didn't even know was there he thought the best idea was to go and speak to the Head Teacher who he knows is real and who could actually help him and she did! Along with standing up to the bully... Problem solved.
Love how they say he answers prayers with the example that someone needs a ride to the convention and Jehovah provided one. Meanwhile, when my husband committed suicide, I was praying for him to stop when I was wrestling him over his shotgun. Apparently a ride to the convention was more important.
Yes: those ideas KILL... We don't say it enough. The "people believe what they want" attitude is criminal. No people shouldn't believe in "death ideas"... They shouldn't believe that god hate them, they shouldn't believe to be "bad people" just because some fanatic fascists uneducated bigot can't stand people "not being robots clones of themselves". Those "ideas", "beliefs" KILLS... They should be handled as it... After that, they also RUINS LIVES... Steal life of innocent children, etc... "People believe what they want" is a CRIMINAL IDEA too.
Jehova witness children are raised frail. With no back bone. Kinda sad we never had true parental advice, rather we had cult advice. The governing body wanted us to be step all over from the outer world. They wanted us to find comfort only in the inner circle of the congregation. Therfore you could never leave the cult
“SOMEONE named Pennina”…that was his other wife. Hannah was being bullied by her husbands other wife! Don’t think polygamy flies in the Borg so we will just call her “someone”. 😂
“Jehovah answers our prayers when we pray for the right things.” Apparently praying for bullying to stop, or for sexual abuse to stop, or to not die from cancer or Covid-19, or any number of really tragic and horrible things, is not praying for the right things ! ! 😮 ! !
If Sophia had her prayers answered, then Jehovah is great. If not, it's because there is something wrong with Sophia. Maybe she isn't preaching enough, reading all the Watchtower propaganda material, praying hard enough, or perhaps she didn't give all of her ice cream money to Tony Morris.
Holy crap, I never even thought of that! -Caleb & Sophia's dad: "Now I want you to be on your best behavior at the meeting son. We are having a special visit from a very important man. Governing Body member Anthony Morris the Third! He has driven all the way from Warwick New York (and through Ramsey New Jersey) to address our congregation." Sophia runs in from outside and announces breathlessly: "Mom, Dad! Some chubby bald drunk driver just drove his BMW into the side of the Kingdom Hall!"
That's what needs to happen to all bullies! Someone needs to give them a taste of their own medicine! And they should all be expelled from their schools for being bullies! And if someone does not kill them for being a bully - at least Sophia will have the satisfaction of knowing they will all be killed at Armageddon! They will get their just desserts one way or another - & it will serve them right - they will have brought it all on themselves. Or maybe Jehovah will strike down all those bullies with a huge thunderbolt!
@@vapx0075 Really? I would have thought that the JW kids would have been completely shunning the children of those who had left the religion (although shunning itself might also be considered a form of bullying). In any case, the JW's are often complaining about being persecuted - but they don't tell people that they themselves are also persecuting those who have left the faith. Incredible!
@@janburn007 i hope that what you wrote was a joke but I can't tell. In case it isn't, you are talking about children. The only people who are responsible for bullying are the adults in charge and not the kids who are bullying
And are we going to ignore how the priest thought Hannah was automatically "drunk" because was hysterical about being bullied??? God forbid a woman has actual feelings about her own torment.
Animation student here we can see watchtower's having some money problem, they are cutting some major corners with the new location and human assets, the IK is clipping into itself constantly (knee and elbow mesh clipping into itself) maybe brother Morris needed to use the cash for some emergency booze
I was psychologically bullied when I was a teenager. During the weekend we went out for a pizza or a movie, but I often excluded. I started to feel lonely and my self-esteem drastically dropped. I cried many times during that period. The funny thing is that bullies were the brothers of my congregation. My classmates liked me and they tried to include me in some social events. Unfortunately everything was forbidden (e.g. birthdays). So I almost always had to refuse.

When I saw the part when High priest Eli says to Hannah: "Are you drunk?!", I couldn't help thinking about Tony and his slurring words in that morning worship, so i'm imagining Eli saying to Tony: “You’re drunk! How long do you plan to keep this up? Sober up, [man]!” (1 Samuel 1:14).
Bullying is NEVER ok. Being a jw, muslim, hindu or atheist doesn't excuse or "invite" bullying. This is on the school, and on all parents to educate the children and prevent it from happening. The child doesn't have a choice, they don't choose their religion, just like they don't choose being poor, or overweight or have allergies or simply being the "wrong" ethnicity or nationality. Being different is not the problem in itself, and "blending in" is not the long term solution. Lloyd, I love your channel and I know you're in no way "pro bullying" but some of the comments here are clearly victim blaming and that's not ok. The school should not be a place where children learn that the best way to succeed or survive in the society is to be as generic as possible. They should instead learn to aknowledge and respect the differences and still be able to get along in a complex, diverse society that is our reality.
Plus, if you're that religious, why send your kids to a public school? Public school is hell if you're just a kid trying to survive, adding this religious "spread the word" bs is guaranteed to ruin their school experience
@@bunnybustard5526 Lets not blame religious parents for sending their children to public schools. Maybe that's the only place where the child can meet other children and teachers that are not of his/her own religion and learn to be more accepting and openminded. And learn about evolution. Criticizing religious people for not being extreme enough only pushes into isolation and extremism.
@@manuelmakesartz still wrong though, my daughter goes to school with JWs, if they were inappropriate I would go to the teacher or ask the parent. Always go through the chain of command first, bullying in childhood can be so damaging
Yes Sophia Jehovah answers prayers. One day real soon He will destroy all those very mean worldly kids. What a message for "young ones" to soften the oppression experienced by kids raised in high control religions, caught between the rock (your religion) and a hard place (the educational system).
I was tortured as a child in school, torn from saying to other kids "My parents make do this", to saying "Follow Jehovah and live". Bullied as an outsider, hell yea! This cult needs to go...I asked my P's about the torture, and they said "It didn't kill you". Oh brilliant, tell that to your kids.

I was bullied and beat up every day from kindergarten to 10th grade mostly because of being a jw. I lived in horror thought about killing myself many times. It finally stoped when I got weights and worked out all summer using the little fold out page that came with the old school cement filled 110lbn weight set. I went back to school that fall and beat the shit out of the biggest bullies in the school. I got in big trouble but i never got bullied again you have to have the courage to stand up and never back down.
Its all so convoluted. I've seen it as a child and told Armageddon would come before attending kindergarten. I was part of the stay alive for 1975. And I've seen what this does on the flip side as a school administrator. Its messed up and sends such a damaging message to babies that can't and shouldn't be made to be put in these situations. I've had a mother try and witnesses to me after her daughter made a bomb threat to the school. And the list goes on.. how sad to use fear as a teaching point. No wonder so many are on antidepressants and commit suicide.
Bullying for me wasn't so much of a torture as much as it was another layer to the social awkwardness that I had to endure when I was a kid. I was already viewed as odd because I couldn't explain why I had autistic attributes in addition to not celebrating birthdays or holidays. It's funny that most of parents I knew took pity or took me for granted when I was trying to get through life and the struggles I had. It was hard to get through school and high school when I was torn between two worlds because that was what it felt like to me. Since I had left that behind, I think I had found peace with it, but the experience is still there.
As a child Sophia age I had a cousin so close in age we were referred to as the twins he became very ill with a brain tumor sadly he passed away age nine. I not only grieved for the loss of him I carried the guilt that Jehovah didn't answer my prayers. 😥💔 I'm sorry but these idiots have no idea. Side note how many Mum's would've been thinking when the father used Hannah as an example would have half expected they daughter to be praying really hard for a baby? 🤣
This shit literally happens all the time as a kid. In my congregation, a decent chunk of witness youths opted to stay silent about the faith and ended up being very popular at school haha. However, not everyone got away with this. Some unlucky bastards (me included 😒) needed to make it clear they were witnesses to ALL OF THEIR CLASSMATES/ TEACHERS and also preach to them as well. Needless to say the experience really fucking sucks...people looking at you weird, having to sit right outside the classroom like some abandoned puppy whilst everyone else is inside watching a Christmas movie and eating pizza, and oh the occasional death threat warning you to never go to their house. And at the end of the day you end up looking like a complete weirdo and a social outcast. (I'm fairly certain that the Organization actually wants this to happen as it plays pretty well into the whole "the world is evil, Jehovah is the only true path" narrative.
I can't count how many times my few school friends told me that they feel bad for me. But in any case, this is the norm and a lot of witnesses get it worse....
In the mid-1960's when I started school, about the only bullying I received wasn't from other students, rather it was from the teachers. By the time I got to high school in the mid-1970's, this was still true. Not all of them were like that, though, but I would say half of them. I don't think any of the kids understood religion or any of that so I didn't get harassed by them. It was the damn adults
Same here. Had a teacher who made a point of telling the whole class I didn't salute the flag for Anzac day. Also bullied by kids because I was always the new kid in school due to my parents constant moving to new towns where the need was great or my father got upset with another elder so we'd just move. Fun times not.
True here as well. My 3rd grade teacher bullied me because of being a JW. She called me out in front of the class multiple times. My wife's Kindergarten teacher also bullied her.
I posted a clip of greys anatomy season 9 episode 13 of a refusal of a transfusion and a woman commented saying the jws tried to recruit her at her bus stop when was in middle school because they knew from jw students her folks weren’t home
I absolutely hated being singled out as a child and feeling separated from others growing up. Never being able to call anyone a friend but “acquaintances”. Started living a double life very young. When I was 13 and one of my close friends from school died in a tragic accident the only thing my father could say to me was that I was blood guilty for hiding I was a JW and not having preached to him while he was alive.
He doesn't answer prayers. Sometimes things work out and sometimes they don't. It's up to the person or persons to make that assumption if it comforts them(or not) or to be bias to someone(or not) just because they've been fortunate or unfortunate in life. And JWs still eat that mentality up. "Look how great their life is, they must be blessed by Jehovah" or "Look how bad their circumstances are, they must not have Jehovah's favor" when the two people could be doing the same exact things for God. Glad I'm out and don't support that behavior anymore. We're all just trying to do the right thing for ourselves and loved ones. We are alone.
My parents told me to turn the other cheek for years and in my 10th year of high school they actually came to my school to watch a talent show…. Whenever they saw all the gang members and types of kids I went to school with the look of terror on their faces was hilarious 🤣
I was relentlessly bullied probably didn't help but I took it upon myself to try and share the so called truth with everyone around me including teacher and students. Long afternoons in the community room because of nonpartisipation in Terry Fox run or Christmas concert being relentlessly tortured for not wearing a poppy on a reverence day And then of course there's knocking on your classmates door on Saturday morning all dressed up only for them to remind you all week long.

Okay I am a nonJW and I was bullied just as Sofia and worse my grandmother who was an Episcopalian tried to tell me God answers prayers. Yeah that really never helped and I prayed from age 6 to 17 to be average ordinary. I relate to this being a kid who used to believe God loved me, but being a learning disabled child I started to realize it wasn't the case. I don't know how JW handle learning disabilities, but I was treated like I was just someone to stab in the back. My mother tried to make it easier by home schooling and she was an athiest who saw my plight and also saw my sister's later when she was 16. The truth is no matter the faith anyone is, bullying is in any form. Sofia is being bullied for being better than a girl in a class because she is deemed the teacher's pet. Any child of JW I usually felt for because as an LD because they get victimized so easily. We were in the same boat. The sad part was even the JW at my school were treated much worse and I felt bad for them. They didn't want to be friends with me either because of that problem. We wanted acceptance, but at what cost?
I was expecting them to make Elisha being bullied by Youths which were mauled by bear. But them making Peninah bullying Hannah as example is still cringe as hell.
They really gave the bully dark hair and eyeliner huh Also are they literally telling people what to pray for? Soon we are going to see "No you cant pray for better parents, pray for tough skin so you can take their punches"
Can you imagine the poor JWs in other lands that don't have enough food for the day, and in the US, a cartoon shows that a kid would want a toy helicopter, and a huge bowl of ice-cream rather than food for the day? So out of touch
I had many different schools to attend and got bullied at every one. I didnt have much parental direction and learnt to handle this on my own. I'm not big, not strong but learnt that the only way to get rid of the bullying was to give like for like.( AKA, i punched them in the face).
These cartoons were not around when I was a kid. I feel so bad for kids growing up in this brainwashing cult right now. It’s so much worse than I remember
It's crazy , my young son never felt comfortable with the kids in the kingdom hall bc they bully each other and have cliques, so glad we're not there anymore, they preach about whole some association but everyone is fake.
I experienced some bullying in school but it was mostly embarrassment because of being pulled out of classrooms every holiday just before kids were getting ready to have fun with birthdays or Christmas, etc. My mother always knew like clockwork when these things would be taking place and would come and pick me up from school just beforehand , it was really very depressing for a child to have to go through. Also another depressing part was having every Monday Bible studies with a sister from the hall, every Tuesday book study, every Thursday 2 1/2 hrs Kingdom Hall, every Saturday Field Service unless I got lucky enough to stay home because it rained, also I always liked when people were kind enough to invite us into their home and the "worldly" person had their channel on cartoons because it meant a lot to a child. It was also very depressing that even the few times that I did not go out on Saturdays of course I could not watch certain cartoons, like the Smurfs, and of course getting ready for 2 1/2 more hrs on Sunday. I can say that I am a few years older than you are and as I sit at my workplace daily I realize that people really look at me still as more of an outcast, so I must be carrying myself a certain way and I do not even realize it, I remember hearing something on someone's channel when they said you can be in a room full of people and and feel like you are the only one the only 1 there., So I would say I guess that's how it affected me, more so like acting like a hermit.
There are so many bad memories that we all faced as JW children. I'm sorry you feel like you don't fit in with your workmates. I hope you can perhaps join in conversation or ask a few workmates out for a cup of coffee or a nice lunch somewhere along the way. Wishing you happiness and a sense of fitting in and belonging. 🥧☕
This was triggering asf and really sad. I got bullied quite a bit for anything, and everything.. I prayed to Jehovah, he did nothing. Soo I just said fuck it. And I fought back. That stopped the bullying..
Oh my gosh. I feel sorry for all the victims. Kids are cruel. I know that from experience. And especially when they know that there is something that makes one different.
In primary Bangor N.I I use to sit alone in a classroom while everyone was in assembly singing songs until I came to Canada then it was that bad at all.
I never had a problem in school. I was well liked. My mother had a heart attack when a picture of me made it into the local newspaper showing me making a christmas card. I guess I made up my own mind about what was ok and what was not. I was called a real rebel, teachers always distrusted me, because I used to read the newspaper and could reason effectively about things. LOL I just did what I thought was right. Some liked me, others didn't understand.
Bruh I didn’t even realize until you said it 😳monarch mind control programming that’s the first thing that came to mind when I saw your comment Religious indoctrination is listed as a mind control and brainwashing method it’s listed as #4 in terms of least to most complex and binding
You guys seem to be like the only few commenters to see the fucking symbolism too!! Its minfd control and PEDOPHILIA symbolism its in alot of the other videos aswell i think theres higher authorities in the Gov. Body who control what goes into art in videos and literature
Primary/Elementary school was the worst. For the kindergarten Halloween parade, my kindergarten teacher put a BROWN PAPER BAG OVER MY HEAD and paraded me along with the other kindergartners (that all had adorable costumes) in front of the entire school. It's still a very sad, heartbreaking, and vivid memory... Being a JW has too many bad memories for me to even count... 😞

Pray to Jehovah to stop the bullying. That's it! That will stop the sport jocks from giving me a wedgie in the men's locker room. Or, the name calling. Or, the cheese whiz from going all over me in a food fight. Hey JDub kids. When you graduate high school is when the majority of this will stop. So, toughen up. Don't follow Watchtower's powder puff reasoning.
Also what's gross is that if a woman can't get pregnant, it's her fault. As if her husband couldn't have fertility issues or, in their cult, be cursed. Henry VIII would have made a great JW
Notice the butterfly in most Videos, In the Mayan and Aztec mythology, a butterfly represents Xiutecutli, the god of fire. The Obsidian Butterfly, the Goddess Iztpapalotl, represents rejuvenation and purification by sacrifice.
I was used to this kind of misogynistic claptrap from the JWs during all of my girlhood. Firstly, if a child, a girl, is to be consoled, using the 'inspiring' life story of a FULL-GROWN WOMAN and her unfulfilled urges to reproduce would have been utterly baffling. Only Tony TightPants and his crusty old cronies would think this kind of story could cut any ice with a young girl at school. Further in the story of Hannah, we learn that if only God can enable her to conceive, she will give her 'son' away to serve God all his life. Though I couldn’t have phrased it at the time, my little girl brain was still capable of wondering why only sons were born at strategic moments in bible history. How did Hannah know it would be a boy? what if it was a girl? etc etc. You're right Lloyd: this video is sinister, manipulative, harmful to kids (especially girls) and deeply spooky.
Looks like the bully may pick-up a few tips from this bully episode. When my kids went to school, whatchtower demanded that they stay seated for the Lords prayer! Omg kids 5 & 6 yrs old being tortured! Mine just stood & said the odd word!
Sophia got bullied because she didn't punch the bully back. Become a heathen. Watch a Christmas Story about Ralphie. Blah! True story. I knew a family with 6 kids. They got bullied because the classmates knew the JW kids weren't allowed fight. So the parents gave permission to punch anyone that was bullying them. It stopped.
I've never been a JW, and I have to admit that I struggled to understand how people can stay in that cult if things are so bad as ex-JW's describe. But an expert in cults explained it to me very good: 'Why do people keep using harmful drugs despite all the negative consequences, why do they become alienated from their family, why do they get along with 'bad friends',... ? It's the same with cults, and we should treat it as such. So the people in cults 'the addicts' need our help to break their harmful habit and harmful suroundings, and after they've left, continious care is needed to prevent a relapse.'

I never understood this account at all. So Hannah had to deal with sharing her husband with a jealous jerk and when she went to pray she was yelled at for being drunk. What kind of servant of god hasn't seen someone sad pray before? People literally ripped their clothes off in grief (when god allowed them to grieve) so I feel like crying at church isn't the wildest thing.
I don’t condone bullying and it unfortunately happens. But another fictional story based on nonsensical realities. The writers live in a bubble outside of reality.
I personally think it's very cruel and abusive for parents to be in the JW religion as their poor children have to "suffer the consequences"! Very, very sad...😰🥺
On this subject I must think about how the victims of holocaust prayed for sure. Families destroyed. Children tortured and killed. Imagine how much and sincerely those millions prayed. God could give discretely a fatal heart attack to Hitler and stop the holocaust on the spot. What did he do? Just turned to the other side of his bed and snored. You can expect nothing from that cruel guy the Bible describes so well.
I really prayed to Jehovah how to out from JW...He answered it,my bro disassociated earlier so it opened my way to research and jumped to a lot of ex JW youtube....huehehehe....now I am out 🎉😀
Teaching children not to go to authorities when they're in trouble, but praying ... is sedition, isn't it? At a deep level.... isn't that teaching is members not to go to police.... and that makes it easier to sexually abuse then, and continue grooming children to accept abuse..... as normal... and that nobody will help you, except Jehovah. That's seditious, because if those children grow up not knowing to call the police.... if they start taking care of our own business and bullies.... that's anarchy. Jehovah's Witnesses.... are seditious!! Hahahaha. They finally outed themselves. Bahahahaha. I mean we all know it, but they are literally putting their religious status on the line by admitting they teach children not to trust police, authorities in place from the government..... that means medical personnel.... to hide anything that they're told will bring reproach on Jehovah's name. They just put maintaining their religion..... over the welfare of children.
Hey would you cover another episode of Caleb and Sophia, its called "be bold, lesson 13" its on their website, reason i want you to cover it is because if your a child in the JW org, its so powerful for a Childs mind its really bad how they indoctrination kids with this literature, in the episode there is so much thats wrong about it but i want you to cover it :)
During the Australian Royal commission BCG said that she prayed to Jehovah to make the sexual abuse from her father stop. Her prayers were never answered.
Do you happen to have the link to that minute mark?
Thanks for sharing your comment
I was being bullied once, my jw dad read me the scripture from St Paul that says "be peaceable with all men as far as it depends upon you".. then said, if you can't be make peace, punch him in the nose, his eyes will water and then he won't be able to see so you can finish him. Took the advice, won the fight, guy never messed with me again.
What a cool dad
Your dad was clever. No turn the other cheek bs.
If this got found out by the elders, your dad would have lost his microphone privileges!!! 😆
@@ezdubbin97 No microphone caddying? That is destruction at armageddon for sure.😆😆
Karmic retribution.
I love it.
My daughter has dealt with bullying at school because of her lack of religion. When she was 8 a group of friends asked what church she went to and when she replied with "none" they began shouting at her. She said they called her stupid and said she was going to hell. The only one to come to her defense was a JW girl who said the same thing I tell my kids all the time - "It's OK for people to believe different things."
Apparently it's not ok for the rest of the entire Planet Earth believing in different things, as Atheists make clear.
Why does the bully look like she's secretly 40?
hahaah couldn't have said it better! Oh yeah those bad girls sure do like their make-up!
Once again, those worldly bullies drawn with their sunken eyes and dark circles…because, you know, the world.
I've been bullied, I hate that. I also hate how adults (worldly or not) let that happened as if it was normal. BUT... Being an adult, I know that most of the "real life" bullies, and just kids, sometimes suffering themselves... Of course there are some "true perverts" in the pack, but often the bully is unsecure himself.
Anyway, I see here how "Christians" they are, submitting to "the others are bad", instead of doing like Jesus and trying to reach the heart of the "lost soul" with love... (Which is an utopia, but at least have some sense... I mean a "noble" sense, some good will). Here the bad are bad because not being a Geee-Dumb, and NO LOVE AT ALL towards the "bully" which is the one "we must love" (according to dJeezuss himself: what the point of loving people loving you ? Love your enemy, blabla, etc.)...
Finally Zach sang it well: "KNOW YOUR ENEMY" !
I would really love an episode where Caleb plays videogames and decides to be an apostate. Then see this family try to cover how he is a minecraft youtuber having his best life.... So who makes the spin off?
Lol. Yeah....it would be great if they ACTUALLY showed what they would ACTUALLY do to an "apostate" gamer. Because if you be a gamer.....you are an apostate. Let's face it.....
This gamer child would be so....so.....barraged with "guilt and shame".
Thing is, Minecraft doesn't REQUIRE this or that. You're having fun or you aren't.....no fakery involved. Unlike the required FAKE happy, happy, joy, joy the JW organization offers.
"why isn't Jehovah answering me? Is he mad at me?"
"No honey, that's normal. Sometimes he doesn't answer, even when we really need him to :)"
.. "Now go in your room and stop bothering me"
@ 🤣 Reminds me of The Matrix
i used to laugh off the names and insults other kids used to call me and some of them were really mean but funny at the same time idk why i found them funny.
for example they used to call me “testiculo de jehova” which means literaly jehova’s testicle bare in mind that witness in spanish sounds pretty similar to testicle.
witness = testigo
testicle = testiculo
That was my experience too and I think it partly depends on your own personal way of dealing with things. I saw others really struggle and were even bullied by other JWs in school for being the particularly strict JW and not just trying our best to blend in like most of us did.
I showed this to my son. He said he was bullied at school when he identified as a JW... but he said he thought rather than praying to someone he didn't even know was there he thought the best idea was to go and speak to the Head Teacher who he knows is real and who could actually help him and she did! Along with standing up to the bully... Problem solved.
Love how they say he answers prayers with the example that someone needs a ride to the convention and Jehovah provided one. Meanwhile, when my husband committed suicide, I was praying for him to stop when I was wrestling him over his shotgun. Apparently a ride to the convention was more important.
So sorry.
Megan, How in heaven's name did you deal with that situation? Gettinf the sense that you are a strong woman.
I’m so sorry you went through that. Suicide is one of the hardest things. 💜
So sorry for your loss heart breaking
Yes: those ideas KILL... We don't say it enough. The "people believe what they want" attitude is criminal. No people shouldn't believe in "death ideas"... They shouldn't believe that god hate them, they shouldn't believe to be "bad people" just because some fanatic fascists uneducated bigot can't stand people "not being robots clones of themselves". Those "ideas", "beliefs" KILLS... They should be handled as it... After that, they also RUINS LIVES... Steal life of innocent children, etc... "People believe what they want" is a CRIMINAL IDEA too.
Jehova witness children are raised frail.
With no back bone. Kinda sad we never had true parental advice, rather we had cult advice. The governing body wanted us to be step all over from the outer world. They wanted us to find comfort only in the inner circle of the congregation.
Therfore you could never leave the cult
“SOMEONE named Pennina”…that was his other wife. Hannah was being bullied by her husbands other wife! Don’t think polygamy flies in the Borg so we will just call her “someone”. 😂
I'm sure kids don't notice the fact that there are literally no other men around so he is obviously both their husband.
“Jehovah answers our prayers when we pray for the right things.”
Apparently praying for bullying to stop, or for sexual abuse to stop, or to not die from cancer or Covid-19, or any number of really tragic and horrible things, is not praying for the right things ! ! 😮 ! !
If Sophia had her prayers answered, then Jehovah is great. If not, it's because there is something wrong with Sophia. Maybe she isn't preaching enough, reading all the Watchtower propaganda material, praying hard enough, or perhaps she didn't give all of her ice cream money to Tony Morris.
So right Efrain wt always has an excuse!
it did not mater how hard i prayed and cryed as a chid or adult, my sky daddy
never answered mine either
Excellent commentary
I really do want to see cartoon versions of the governing body. When?
Holy crap, I never even thought of that! -Caleb & Sophia's dad: "Now I want you to be on your best behavior at the meeting son. We are having a special visit from a very important man. Governing Body member Anthony Morris the Third! He has driven all the way from Warwick New York (and through Ramsey New Jersey) to address our congregation." Sophia runs in from outside and announces breathlessly: "Mom, Dad! Some chubby bald drunk driver just drove his BMW into the side of the Kingdom Hall!"
Jehovah helped Elisha when he was bullied by those 42 kids! He killed them all!!🥴🥴
That's what needs to happen to all bullies! Someone needs to give them a taste of their own medicine! And they should all be expelled from their schools for being bullies! And if someone does not kill them for being a bully - at least Sophia will have the satisfaction of knowing they will all be killed at Armageddon! They will get their just desserts one way or another - & it will serve them right - they will have brought it all on themselves. Or maybe Jehovah will strike down all those bullies with a huge thunderbolt!
@@janburn007 My sisters got bullied by JW kids because my parents left the religion.
@@vapx0075 Really? I would have thought that the JW kids would have been completely shunning the children of those who had left the religion (although shunning itself might also be considered a form of bullying). In any case, the JW's are often complaining about being persecuted - but they don't tell people that they themselves are also persecuting those who have left the faith. Incredible!
@@janburn007 i hope that what you wrote was a joke but I can't tell. In case it isn't, you are talking about children. The only people who are responsible for bullying are the adults in charge and not the kids who are bullying
😂🤣😅😂🤣😅😂🤣😅
And are we going to ignore how the priest thought Hannah was automatically "drunk" because was hysterical about being bullied??? God forbid a woman has actual feelings about her own torment.
I was raised in the truth, but no longer in. When I was in school, I didn't want anyone to know my religion because I didn't want to stand out!
Animation student here
we can see watchtower's having some money problem, they are cutting some major corners with the new location and human assets, the IK is clipping into itself constantly (knee and elbow mesh clipping into itself) maybe brother Morris needed to use the cash for some emergency booze
I was psychologically bullied when I was a teenager. During the weekend we went out for a pizza or a movie, but I often excluded. I started to feel lonely and my self-esteem drastically dropped. I cried many times during that period. The funny thing is that bullies were the brothers of my congregation. My classmates liked me and they tried to include me in some social events. Unfortunately everything was forbidden (e.g. birthdays). So I almost always had to refuse.

When I saw the part when High priest Eli says to Hannah: "Are you drunk?!", I couldn't help thinking about Tony and his slurring words in that morning worship, so i'm imagining Eli saying to Tony:
“You’re drunk! How long do you plan to keep this up? Sober up, [man]!” (1 Samuel 1:14).
Bullying is NEVER ok. Being a jw, muslim, hindu or atheist doesn't excuse or "invite" bullying. This is on the school, and on all parents to educate the children and prevent it from happening. The child doesn't have a choice, they don't choose their religion, just like they don't choose being poor, or overweight or have allergies or simply being the "wrong" ethnicity or nationality. Being different is not the problem in itself, and "blending in" is not the long term solution. Lloyd, I love your channel and I know you're in no way "pro bullying" but some of the comments here are clearly victim blaming and that's not ok.
The school should not be a place where children learn that the best way to succeed or survive in the society is to be as generic as possible. They should instead learn to aknowledge and respect the differences and still be able to get along in a complex, diverse society that is our reality.
Plus, if you're that religious, why send your kids to a public school? Public school is hell if you're just a kid trying to survive, adding this religious "spread the word" bs is guaranteed to ruin their school experience
@@bunnybustard5526 Lets not blame religious parents for sending their children to public schools. Maybe that's the only place where the child can meet other children and teachers that are not of his/her own religion and learn to be more accepting and openminded. And learn about evolution. Criticizing religious people for not being extreme enough only pushes into isolation and extremism.
Perhaps she was bullied after being intolerant to her classmates about their parents being gay
Now that you addressed that, you may actually be right! 🤔
@@manuelmakesartz still wrong though, my daughter goes to school with JWs, if they were inappropriate I would go to the teacher or ask the parent. Always go through the chain of command first, bullying in childhood can be so damaging
Yes Sophia Jehovah answers prayers. One day real soon He will destroy all those very mean worldly kids. What a message for "young ones" to soften the oppression experienced by kids raised in high control religions, caught between the rock (your religion) and a hard place (the educational system).
Why were the prayers of the thousands of victims of CSA not answered from adult witnesses bullying 🥲

I was tortured as a child in school, torn from saying to other kids "My parents make do this", to saying "Follow Jehovah and live". Bullied as an outsider, hell yea! This cult needs to go...I asked my P's about the torture, and they said "It didn't kill you". Oh brilliant, tell that to your kids.

I was bullied and beat up every day from kindergarten to 10th grade mostly because of being a jw. I lived in horror thought about killing myself many times. It finally stoped when I got weights and worked out all summer using the little fold out page that came with the old school cement filled 110lbn weight set. I went back to school that fall and beat the shit out of the biggest bullies in the school. I got in big trouble but i never got bullied again you have to have the courage to stand up and never back down.
Its all so convoluted. I've seen it as a child and told Armageddon would come before attending kindergarten. I was part of the stay alive for 1975. And I've seen what this does on the flip side as a school administrator. Its messed up and sends such a damaging message to babies that can't and shouldn't be made to be put in these situations. I've had a mother try and witnesses to me after her daughter made a bomb threat to the school. And the list goes on.. how sad to use fear as a teaching point. No wonder so many are on antidepressants and commit suicide.
Bullying for me wasn't so much of a torture as much as it was another layer to the social awkwardness that I had to endure when I was a kid. I was already viewed as odd because I couldn't explain why I had autistic attributes in addition to not celebrating birthdays or holidays. It's funny that most of parents I knew took pity or took me for granted when I was trying to get through life and the struggles I had. It was hard to get through school and high school when I was torn between two worlds because that was what it felt like to me. Since I had left that behind, I think I had found peace with it, but the experience is still there.
I recall a J-Dub girl that was bullied relentlessly to the point of tears. I felt sorry for her.
As a child Sophia age I had a cousin so close in age we were referred to as the twins he became very ill with a brain tumor sadly he passed away age nine. I not only grieved for the loss of him I carried the guilt that Jehovah didn't answer my prayers. 😥💔 I'm sorry but these idiots have no idea.
Side note how many Mum's would've been thinking when the father used Hannah as an example would have half expected they daughter to be praying really hard for a baby? 🤣
This reminds me of the time Chris Stuckmann told us that he was a victim of bullying BECAUSE he was a JW. So hard to hear.
This shit literally happens all the time as a kid. In my congregation, a decent chunk of witness youths opted to stay silent about the faith and ended up being very popular at school haha. However, not everyone got away with this. Some unlucky bastards (me included 😒) needed to make it clear they were witnesses to ALL OF THEIR CLASSMATES/ TEACHERS and also preach to them as well.
Needless to say the experience really fucking sucks...people looking at you weird, having to sit right outside the classroom like some abandoned puppy whilst everyone else is inside watching a Christmas movie and eating pizza, and oh the occasional death threat warning you to never go to their house.
And at the end of the day you end up looking like a complete weirdo and a social outcast. (I'm fairly certain that the Organization actually wants this to happen as it plays pretty well into the whole "the world is evil, Jehovah is the only true path" narrative.
I can't count how many times my few school friends told me that they feel bad for me. But in any case, this is the norm and a lot of witnesses get it worse....
In the mid-1960's when I started school, about the only bullying I received wasn't from other students, rather it was from the teachers. By the time I got to high school in the mid-1970's, this was still true. Not all of them were like that, though, but I would say half of them. I don't think any of the kids understood religion or any of that so I didn't get harassed by them. It was the damn adults
Same here. Had a teacher who made a point of telling the whole class I didn't salute the flag for Anzac day. Also bullied by kids because I was always the new kid in school due to my parents constant moving to new towns where the need was great or my father got upset with another elder so we'd just move. Fun times not.
True here as well. My 3rd grade teacher bullied me because of being a JW. She called me out in front of the class multiple times. My wife's Kindergarten teacher also bullied her.
I posted a clip of greys anatomy season 9 episode 13 of a refusal of a transfusion and a woman commented saying the jws tried to recruit her at her bus stop when was in middle school because they knew from jw students her folks weren’t home
I absolutely hated being singled out as a child and feeling separated from others growing up. Never being able to call anyone a friend but “acquaintances”. Started living a double life very young. When I was 13 and one of my close friends from school died in a tragic accident the only thing my father could say to me was that I was blood guilty for hiding I was a JW and not having preached to him while he was alive.
Wow that's really messed up putting blame on you
He doesn't answer prayers. Sometimes things work out and sometimes they don't. It's up to the person or persons to make that assumption if it comforts them(or not) or to be bias to someone(or not) just because they've been fortunate or unfortunate in life. And JWs still eat that mentality up. "Look how great their life is, they must be blessed by Jehovah" or "Look how bad their circumstances are, they must not have Jehovah's favor" when the two people could be doing the same exact things for God. Glad I'm out and don't support that behavior anymore. We're all just trying to do the right thing for ourselves and loved ones. We are alone.
My parents told me to turn the other cheek for years and in my 10th year of high school they actually came to my school to watch a talent show…. Whenever they saw all the gang members and types of kids I went to school with the look of terror on their faces was hilarious 🤣
Been there too. Bad childhood memories scars us all.
I was relentlessly bullied probably didn't help but I took it upon myself to try and share the so called truth with everyone around me including teacher and students. Long afternoons in the community room because of nonpartisipation in Terry Fox run or Christmas concert being relentlessly tortured for not wearing a poppy on a reverence day And then of course there's knocking on your classmates door on Saturday morning all dressed up only for them to remind you all week long.

@@jaguillermol Hi Troll!
Is it just me or did the animations begin to look like mobile game ads recently?
Okay I am a nonJW and I was bullied just as Sofia and worse my grandmother who was an Episcopalian tried to tell me God answers prayers. Yeah that really never helped and I prayed from age 6 to 17 to be average ordinary. I relate to this being a kid who used to believe God loved me, but being a learning disabled child I started to realize it wasn't the case. I don't know how JW handle learning disabilities, but I was treated like I was just someone to stab in the back. My mother tried to make it easier by home schooling and she was an athiest who saw my plight and also saw my sister's later when she was 16. The truth is no matter the faith anyone is, bullying is in any form. Sofia is being bullied for being better than a girl in a class because she is deemed the teacher's pet. Any child of JW I usually felt for because as an LD because they get victimized so easily. We were in the same boat.
The sad part was even the JW at my school were treated much worse and I felt bad for them. They didn't want to be friends with me either because of that problem. We wanted acceptance, but at what cost?
I was expecting them to make Elisha being bullied by Youths which were mauled by bear. But them making Peninah bullying Hannah as example is still cringe as hell.
They really gave the bully dark hair and eyeliner huh
Also are they literally telling people what to pray for? Soon we are going to see "No you cant pray for better parents, pray for tough skin so you can take their punches"
I'm so sorry you had to endure that bullying.
nothing that comes from that organisation makes any logical sense
Can you imagine the poor JWs in other lands that don't have enough food for the day, and in the US, a cartoon shows that a kid would want a toy helicopter, and a huge bowl of ice-cream rather than food for the day?
So out of touch
"Please Yahweh, give me a child! If you do, I will give you my child!"
I had many different schools to attend and got bullied at every one. I didnt have much parental direction and learnt to handle this on my own. I'm not big, not strong but learnt that the only way to get rid of the bullying was to give like for like.( AKA, i punched them in the face).
These cartoons were not around when I was a kid. I feel so bad for kids growing up in this brainwashing cult right now. It’s so much worse than I remember
16:23 "always smiling... judging... watching... look at the baby, look at the baby!"
I really feel so sorry for these poor kids. I hope they get away from this madness, it is killing them,
It's crazy , my young son never felt comfortable with the kids in the kingdom hall bc they bully each other and have cliques, so glad we're not there anymore, they preach about whole some association but everyone is fake.
I was bullied most part of my childhood. One of the worst bullies in my class was a girl who came from JW family 😒
I experienced some bullying in school but it was mostly embarrassment because of being pulled out of classrooms every holiday just before kids were getting ready to have fun with birthdays or Christmas, etc. My mother always knew like clockwork when these things would be taking place and would come and pick me up from school just beforehand , it was really very depressing for a child to have to go through. Also another depressing part was having every Monday Bible studies with a sister from the hall, every Tuesday book study, every Thursday 2 1/2 hrs Kingdom Hall, every Saturday Field Service unless I got lucky enough to stay home because it rained, also I always liked when people were kind enough to invite us into their home and the "worldly" person had their channel on cartoons because it meant a lot to a child. It was also very depressing that even the few times that I did not go out on Saturdays of course I could not watch certain cartoons, like the Smurfs, and of course getting ready for 2 1/2 more hrs on Sunday. I can say that I am a few years older than you are and as I sit at my workplace daily I realize that people really look at me still as more of an outcast, so I must be carrying myself a certain way and I do not even realize it, I remember hearing something on someone's channel when they said you can be in a room full of people and and feel like you are the only one the only 1 there., So I would say I guess that's how it affected me, more so like acting like a hermit.
There are so many bad memories that we all faced as JW children. I'm sorry you feel like you don't fit in with your workmates. I hope you can perhaps join in conversation or ask a few workmates out for a cup of coffee or a nice lunch somewhere along the way. Wishing you happiness and a sense of fitting in and belonging. 🥧☕

This was triggering asf and really sad. I got bullied quite a bit for anything, and everything.. I prayed to Jehovah, he did nothing. Soo I just said fuck it. And I fought back. That stopped the bullying..
Oh my gosh. I feel sorry for all the victims. Kids are cruel. I know that from experience. And especially when they know that there is something that makes one different.
01:18 OMG Edna Mode is a JW.
In primary Bangor N.I I use to sit alone in a classroom while everyone was in assembly singing songs until I came to Canada then it was that bad at all.
16:40 So.. we are just going to ignore how polygamy was allowed by an all powerful God who could see the future and past so therefore saying it's ok?
In a child's cartoon. It's perfectly okay...
So... Sophia prayed? What happened? Where can I see the whole JW video? Or does it end just there?
Wow - I had to fast forward through it - at 60 it still triggered me - how crazy is that.
I never had a problem in school. I was well liked. My mother had a heart attack when a picture of me made it into the local newspaper showing me making a christmas card. I guess I made up my own mind about what was ok and what was not. I was called a real rebel, teachers always distrusted me, because I used to read the newspaper and could reason effectively about things. LOL I just did what I thought was right. Some liked me, others didn't understand.
Why is there a butterfly in every Caleb and Sofia video? It’s starting to creep me out.

Primary/Elementary school was the worst. For the kindergarten Halloween parade, my kindergarten teacher put a BROWN PAPER BAG OVER MY HEAD and paraded me along with the other kindergartners (that all had adorable costumes) in front of the entire school. It's still a very sad, heartbreaking, and vivid memory... Being a JW has too many bad memories for me to even count... 😞
That too is not normal. That was a horrible teacher that needed to loose her job. But I’m with you on the horrible memories

Pray to Jehovah to stop the bullying. That's it! That will stop the sport jocks from giving me a wedgie in the men's locker room. Or, the name calling. Or, the cheese whiz from going all over me in a food fight. Hey JDub kids. When you graduate high school is when the majority of this will stop. So, toughen up. Don't follow Watchtower's powder puff reasoning.
It's an "epic" because it's longer. BRILLIANT!
Also what's gross is that if a woman can't get pregnant, it's her fault. As if her husband couldn't have fertility issues or, in their cult, be cursed. Henry VIII would have made a great JW
I know it seems hard but kids do appreciate cartoons that don't baby a subject. BUT age appreciate too.
Notice the butterfly in most Videos, In the Mayan and Aztec mythology, a butterfly represents Xiutecutli, the god of fire. The Obsidian Butterfly, the Goddess Iztpapalotl, represents rejuvenation and purification by sacrifice.

I was used to this kind of misogynistic claptrap from the JWs during all of my girlhood. Firstly, if a child, a girl, is to be consoled, using the 'inspiring' life story of a FULL-GROWN WOMAN and her unfulfilled urges to reproduce would have been utterly baffling. Only Tony TightPants and his crusty old cronies would think this kind of story could cut any ice with a young girl at school. Further in the story of Hannah, we learn that if only God can enable her to conceive, she will give her 'son' away to serve God all his life. Though I couldn’t have phrased it at the time, my little girl brain was still capable of wondering why only sons were born at strategic moments in bible history. How did Hannah know it would be a boy? what if it was a girl? etc etc. You're right Lloyd: this video is sinister, manipulative, harmful to kids (especially girls) and deeply spooky.
Looks like the bully may pick-up a few tips from this bully episode. When
my kids went to school, whatchtower demanded that they stay seated for the
Lords prayer! Omg kids 5 & 6 yrs old being tortured! Mine just stood & said
the odd word!
Why was the Lord's prayer in a public school to begin with?
Anyone noticed gore Sophia and Caleb have not age? Are they in paradise already?
Sophia got bullied because she didn't punch the bully back. Become a heathen. Watch a Christmas Story about Ralphie. Blah!
True story. I knew a family with 6 kids. They got bullied because the classmates knew the JW kids weren't allowed fight. So the parents gave permission to punch anyone that was bullying them. It stopped.
Christine, You are damn sure. Beat that bully to a frazzle. That be my mantra. A person is as strong as you allow them to be. Way to go Christine!
Maybe the message with Hannah is that if Sophia gets pregnant she wont have to attend school so wont be bullied
😂 Maybe…

I've never been a JW, and I have to admit that I struggled to understand how people can stay in that cult if things are so bad as ex-JW's describe. But an expert in cults explained it to me very good: 'Why do people keep using harmful drugs despite all the negative consequences, why do they become alienated from their family, why do they get along with 'bad friends',... ? It's the same with cults, and we should treat it as such. So the people in cults 'the addicts' need our help to break their harmful habit and harmful suroundings, and after they've left, continious care is needed to prevent a relapse.'

Boxing is the solution to bullying. It's actually the solution to lots of things. A law should be passed converting every KH into a boxing gym.
I never understood this account at all. So Hannah had to deal with sharing her husband with a jealous jerk and when she went to pray she was yelled at for being drunk. What kind of servant of god hasn't seen someone sad pray before? People literally ripped their clothes off in grief (when god allowed them to grieve) so I feel like crying at church isn't the wildest thing.

"I'm not drunk, I'm under great stress". Sure Hannah 🙄
Correct me if I'm wrong I thought the Creator did'nt like ones that go on the stage, if that is true why all the video,s
Totally inappropriate to tell a child to preach, and to try to indoctrinate other children.
I don’t condone bullying and it unfortunately happens. But another fictional story based on nonsensical realities. The writers live in a bubble outside of reality.
TBF, bullying happens to almost everyone, JW or not.
I don't recall arguing the opposite.
@@LloydEvans Oh, you didn't, Lloyd! I didn't mean to imply you did! I just wanted to let victims know they're not alone!
These men need to be tried for Child abuse. Kids shouldn't have to watch this crap! I hope governments see this and put these men in prison
I personally think it's very cruel and abusive for parents to be in the JW religion as their poor children have to "suffer the consequences"! Very, very sad...😰🥺
That Girl bully looks like a Despicable me villain.
Maybe Jehovah can’t see me… yeah… because it’s too dark in here lol
On this subject I must think about how the victims of holocaust prayed for sure. Families destroyed. Children tortured and killed. Imagine how much and sincerely those millions prayed. God could give discretely a fatal heart attack to Hitler and stop the holocaust on the spot. What did he do? Just turned to the other side of his bed and snored. You can expect nothing from that cruel guy the Bible describes so well.
And Hannah was AN ADULT. Sophia is a little kid.
I really prayed to Jehovah how to out from JW...He answered it,my bro disassociated earlier so it opened my way to research and jumped to a lot of ex JW youtube....huehehehe....now I am out 🎉😀
Why is a crying woman automatically drunk?
Teaching children not to go to authorities when they're in trouble, but praying ... is sedition, isn't it? At a deep level.... isn't that teaching is members not to go to police.... and that makes it easier to sexually abuse then, and continue grooming children to accept abuse..... as normal... and that nobody will help you, except Jehovah.
That's seditious, because if those children grow up not knowing to call the police.... if they start taking care of our own business and bullies.... that's anarchy.
Jehovah's Witnesses.... are seditious!! Hahahaha. They finally outed themselves. Bahahahaha. I mean we all know it, but they are literally putting their religious status on the line by admitting they teach children not to trust police, authorities in place from the government..... that means medical personnel.... to hide anything that they're told will bring reproach on Jehovah's name.
They just put maintaining their religion..... over the welfare of children.
As an ex jw, the cringe is real
Bully is everywhere
