    Shunning & Ostracism
    There are millions of victims of Jehovah's Witnesses' extreme form of shunning. To end the cruelty, one must return to being an active member in the church, or die.
    Child Abuse
    Tens of thousands of children within Jehovah's Witnesses have been sexually abused. Many victims are told to "wait on Jehovah" as a way for the problem to be covered up.
    Depression & Suicide
    The beliefs, doctrines and practices of Jehovah's Witnesses can induce mental illness, particularly for those who are required to shun close family members as a means to coerce estranged loved ones to return.
