  • 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.

Dh wants to take 2 months off from TTC. We have 2 children with thanksgiving to Christmas birthdays and he doesn't want another in there. I know he is probably thinking things through but.... What if our time is during that time? He doesn't want to really do anything to prevent he just doesn't want to try either does that make sense. UGH!!! He is so frustrating so what does this mean, to tell you the truth I am not really sure. I asked if he wanted me to stop temping and he said no because after 2 Cycles then he wants to really go back to trying and the info could help us. Ok so what are going to do or not do to not try, I have no idea. Is this confusing to anyone else? And if you understand explain to me. I think this is more frustrating than TTC.

Sometimes I wonder if it is for deniablity. His family who really think large families are bad. 2 is all, that is what is expected and you should stop. It is preferable if it is 1 boy and then 1 girl. Anyway. Sorry bout that it annoys me though.

Ok well his family has complained more than once about the birthdays, we have one in early Jan. also. And it is like it puts them out. The were so happy our last one was in Aug. You'd think they did something more than ran to the dollar store and spend 10 bucks but anyway. Sorry agian. I know I know I have issues. But I was wondering if dh just wants to be able to say "well we didn't plan it that way it just happened" But man it still messes with my head.

Maybe you just need to clear the air about all the things you mentioned above. He needs to know you feel this way.
