  • 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.

We have had quite a time of it lately. My son just finished his first appointment with a child psychiatrist who has diagnosed him with ADHD and OCD. My beautiful, articulate, sensitive, humorous boy, child of my heart, has a new burden to carry and my heart hurts for him. He is such a great kid, one of those miracle children that were never supposed to be but that God had planned and gave to me at just the right time in my life. I gave my son back to God many years ago asking God to use this child for our joy and His glory and I cling to the good plans that God has for my son. Please pray that the medication that he has been prescribed will work well with little side effects and that the behavior therapy will give my son some good coping skills that he can use to counteract his thought processes. And my husband and I need prayer as we seek to make wise informed choices for our son. :groupray: Thanks

Dear Lord, I pray for these parents' son that the medication would work well and have no side effects. I pray for wisdom for the parents in bringing up their child. Please help their son adjust and be able to function well in this world Lord. In Jesus name I pray. Amen

There are many books on the market about your son's diagnosis. May I suggest you go on Amazon.com and research them. There are so many things you can do for him, and different ways to approach his behavior, without all the frustrations. I will pray for you and your son. I feel sad knowing your son and so many others are made to feel that they are different and do not fit into what our society says is normal for a little boy. Boys used to be outside playing free, hunting, gathering, learning hands on skills from adults in the community. Now they are sat down in seats in a building, medicated, so they can conform nicely. sigh. I know he is a child of God, and I will pray for you. smile

Thank you for your prayers!! I know that prayer works and is powerul - even if we don't always see God working, He is. My son took his first dose of medication today and so far feels ok, just a little light headed. I am curious to see if it helps with his concentration at school. It is so good to know that you all are lifting my son up to our Father in prayer. Bless you.:groupray:
