    What to do with that pesky foreskin!

    It has recently come to light that most of the uncircumcised boys in the studies by Thomas Wiswell, the main source of data for the view that uncircumcised boys are more subject to UTIs, were born in US military hospitals, where the rule was to retract their foreskins in infancy for cleaning...

    What to do with that pesky foreskin!

    Ok, so no debate, huh?:P To be completely honest, although I did look into it at the time ( I have 2 and they are uncircumcised - unlike their Daddy), I've not researched this as thoroughly as you, as a nurse , may have; the risks I had in mind were nothing more sinister than the usual risks...

    question about christian suicide

    When I was suffering with depression I wondered the same thing, and I know that at times it was the only thing that stopped me doing anything. I guess it is one of those things that only God knows. He sees your heart, and no-one else can, so I don't know if there is an answer to that until we...

    What to do with that pesky foreskin!

    Sasch, I tried the link and it opened to a blank page........ I think it's amazing what can be achieved in medicine these days, and I think it's great to hear that they can make good use of something that some have no use for. Personally I would hesitate to submit my newborn baby to a...

    Gamecube? Nintendo? games,games,games!

    I'm glad you put this out there - I was wondering the same thing. I've always allowed my children limited time on the computer, but I still hesitate to buy a tv console game. My biggest objection is the cost - they seem so expensive, and then they are overtaken with newer versions that are...

    My son seems so sad...

    Has he ever had his eyes checked? I know it sounds like a strange question, but I can still remember the terrible time we had with our son when he was younger. His behaviour was way off; tantrums, overreaction to changes in routine etc, and he was clearly different to our other 2 children -...

    Serious Depression

    Well said, Bee! Fighter, I'm sorry to hear that you feel that your family is not hearing you. The positive thing about this is that you've no choice but to rely on Jesus, because God hears you, and when you read His word He puts the 'hope into your heart' like Bee said. Read the scriptures...

    Serious Depression

    Fighter, you are not crazy, you are fighting an illness. People don't want to be around you because they don't know how to be with you. With depression you don't 'think' like they do, and it is hard to deal with. How often do you see your doctor? I mean the one for your heart? Perhaps...

    INVASION From the AU Forums!

    Do you mean that they ate it off a spoon - like nutella or peanut butter or something? That's NOT the way to enjoy vegemite! Sounds like your friend had a traumatic experience with it. *shakes head* We hear of these terrible cases far too often, don't we aussies? Now listen up: You get some...

    I'm in Way Over my Head

    Bravado, here's a scripture for you: Romans 7:15 - 8:2: 15I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. 16And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. 17As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me...

    Reverse Psychology

    We only use it in the same context that someone else mentioned; to lighten a mood or in fun - eg "Hey, did I say you could smile? There's NO smiling now" and stuff like that. It always gets the desired reaction (ie a smile :) ) One thing I stumbled upon was when I found my son getting dressed...
