  • 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 am fairly new to CF. I just looked under the parenting forum today and found this one. I have a special needs daughter, she is 8. I feel isolated a lot because I can't get out much, I don't have any close friends and my family just doesn't understand. I was so glad to find CF and now I am really glad that there is a forum for parents with special needs kids!! I just thought I would pop in and say hi. :wave:

Hello and welcome to CF and to the Special needs kiddo section. My kiddo is 9 and I home school her too, so I do not get out much either. It seems my sister somewhat understands, but she several states away. None of the rest the family seems to understand and since they do not really "get her", they are unable to watch her without us around.

The isolation is rough and one very good aspect of the internet is that it helps a little with that feeling.
