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.

Remember two things: 1. You don't need everything all at once and 2. Babies grow amazingly fast. Don't go overboard on things you don't really need or might use for only a short time. They outgrow clothes very fast. Some newborns never fit into "newborn" sizes but go straight to 3-month size. Get whatever you can second-hand or borrowed, except for a car seat. Get that new. If you opt for a crib, make sure it's up to current standards and is in good condition. I never used a changing table, though it would have been nice. I usually put my son on a big towel on the floor. No matter how much they wiggle, they can't fall off the floor. Basic necessities: place to sleep, diapers, a way to feed the baby, and a way to wash everything. Babies tend to be messy.
