  • 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 hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I share an apartment with my mom. My mom told me she loves having me here, and doesn't truly want me to leave, but that a part of her is telling me I need to live on my own again, to get a greater sense of responsibility.

Yep, I'm 25 and I feel at a certain age its just time to go. Parents say they don't mind but then they nag and become double minded..an example is.. When my mom stressed about bills, I gave her half of my refund,..offered to give her some of the money I made from work.,,
My grandma said, just let (me/farside) help you, and my mom was like, so what am I gonna do? Let(me/far side) pay all the bills? No..

And I'm like make up your mind, you need help but don't want to accept my money..

I feel when it gets like that and just really naggy, its time to go.

I can't wait to get accepted into my OTA program, I'll be on my own for the first time in my life.., gotta save up :)

That sounds like a great idea. :)

I should probably also mention that she is the type of person who, when she tells you to do something, she will help you do it. Like loaning me money for a Deposit on my own apartment, for example.

That sounds like a good idea. You need to find your own path in life.
By relying on Him of course. :)

I think that's a wonderful idea, and with her being supportive of you it will help a lot in that transition.

She feels sorry for me because of my past and what I have been through.

I wish my mom felt sorry for me, she hates my gutz. She told me she wishes I was never born*tears fall* Who would say that to their only son?#PainChangesEverything

Yeah well we don't all get sweetie pie mothers, sometimes our mothers genuinely hate us. My mom told me she wishes she had listened to her friend and went through with the abortion#hurtfeelings

I feel like there should be a test to have kids, like we have to know if you're capable of loving the kid at least .

I'm sorry man

Well if my parents didn't have me, I wouldn't be here. So the pros outweigh the cons I'd say. There are a ton of bad parents out there who suck at raising children, but plenty turn out alright. Sure it may take years of therapy and lots of psychtropic drugs but it usually works out in the end.

I think I'm in a rare crowd that will wait for marriage before moving out. But I wanna be ready! I'm learning to drive. (Kinda close to being able to do it on my own) I am learning to do things so I can mature in those ways and be ready. My siblings and I are all adults now and still with our parents. Just waiting on God's timing.
