    Attachment Parenting Christian Parents?

    Ah yes! I'm so glad to finally meet with people who parent like we do. Refreshing, I will admit that I've never heard of "Grace based Dicipline before but it sounds exactly like the reason we chose to parent this way. God is love and I believe I should extend that to my child(ren). Has anyone...

    Attachment Parenting Christian Parents?

    I'm finding it very difficult to find some parents I can talk with who are in the same boat as me. We are Christians,and parents to a beautiful 13 month old daughter, but unlike a lot of our Christian friends, we parent along the AP style much more closely than the "typical" Christian families...

    What would you do?

    What would I do? Well I'm in a similar situation where my Mother tries to lean on me for support, to occupy her time, for reassurance, for everything really. My Mum has other issues. But yes, it did cause a strain on my marriage for a while. What I would say though, is that is her MOTHER at...

    Need Some Advice, Please...

    I was just about to say that! Part of the whole male thing is building a healthy confidence/ego (not swelling it), maybe being slightly more needy? It may make him feel useful and fulfilled that he can do things for you. Hubby still thinks I can't hang a picture, when the truth is I'd probably...

    Don't know what to call this: marriage question

    I don't think it's fair to say the man hasn't got a heart. Is possible to have anger issues and still love. That's like saying someone With depression can't love, if it's a mental health or emotional problem that can be helped then why can't he have a heart? I doubt he sets out daily to hurt...

    Don't know what to call this: marriage question

    Have you ever talked with him About it? What does he say causes it? Does he tell you why he thinks it's ok for him to treat you this way? How do we deal with the hard stuff? Write it all out. It may seem like its useless at the time, but you don't stop reading a letter or email half way...

    Cannot escape these dreams-what is going on?

    Guys thanks a million, I was beginning to doubt my sanity. I don't think I'm "predicting" him having an affair and trust me, if he ever had one it would t be with her anyway! I was just thinking maybe there was some Subconscious insecurity there that I wasn't aware of. Hubby has arranged...

    The Spark Plug of marriage

    100%! Words , actions, touch, expressions affection is so important to us. Even just telling hubby that shirt looks good on him boosts his confidence, or if he compliments me at all I feel a million. Nothing compares to kind words from your spouse. :blush:

    Topless/Nude Beach?
