  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

    Jealousy/envy/hate

    I think 11:30 is kind of early myself if your mother knows exactly where you are. Is there a curfew where you live? Could that be a problem for your mother? I remember having the same problem when I was your age. The only good thing about it was that it sort of made guys have more respect for...

    bedwetting?

    I am telling my story in case someone with a problem with an older child reads this thread. Your daughter does not want to wet the bed and when her body is physically ready she will stop. Keep her doctors informed and they will provide you and her help until her body is ready. My son stopped...

    Kid's having secrets with parents friends

    I see you have tried all the logical approaches like telling him he can trust you etc. I think it is more important for you to find out what the secret is than any of the consequences of taking drastic measures. I would blackmail him, I would find out what he really wants and tell him you will...

    Ok needing help again...

    Since a medical condition has been ruled out, this is my advice. I have had a childcare business for 12 years. I also have a 12 and 19 year old. I know it would be very hard on your heart but remember children will not die from crying. Put her down in her bed, go back to check on her every...

    Help me pick a topic for my project....

    I am not in favor of spanking but I thought this little article I found was amusing: The other day, someone at a store in a small town read that a methamphetamine lab had been found in an old farmhouse in the adjoining county and he asked me a rhetorical question, "Why didn't we have a drug...

    I would be interested in if children who went to some kind preschool program scored any better than children who stayed at home until kindergarten on standardized tests in 3rd and the 5th grade than children who did not. The statistics would have to be based upon children whose parents were from...

    I need advice badly

    I agree with all the previous posts and if doing what they all said helps you then that would be the best thing to do. But, if that does not work, first I believe you are only in seventh grade and it is your responsibilty to be kind to her but not necessarily be her friend. I think you should...

    need advice

    I absolutely agree with the previous two posts, but I think you already know that God forgives us if we are truly sorrowful for what we do. It seems like you may be afraid of why you did it and your scared you might do something like that again. I am curious to know how old you are and if this...

    help with dilema please

    First of all thank you so much to all who have offered me their points of view on my situation. What a wonderful opportunity to see unbiased opinions to help a person. Unfortunately, in trying to keep my original question as brief as possible, I left out some important details. The reason why...

    help with dilema please

    My sister and I were given tickets to sell to raise money for a charity. I have listed the tickets on e-bay and they have sold for $60 a ticket. My sister told people where she worked that she had these tickets and that she was trying to raise money for this charity. Her co-workers were...
