  • 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.

How?!? How did I not know this forum was here!

I am so stunned and so grateful!
Single parenting is...well, I know I need support and people to vent to.
I have two wonderful children and I am thankful everyday that I survive.

I am always exhausted and almost always feel guilty-wishing I had more to give.
It hit me like a brick wall that my oldest will be eighteen in just five short years. She very likely will be moving out at that time because she is brilliant and focused on college. With her academic success and drive I think the really good schools will be recruiting her.

I can't imagine her not with me-but I also kind of wish I had an occassional break from parenting-such conflicting emotions.

I hate that I have to little to give my children. But, I would do anything for them and thank God for honoring me with stewardship over these two precious souls.

Okay, wow, I'm just so happy to have found this forum.

Now to go check out the single Christian forum so I can complain about being lonely :prayer:
