  • 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 sure looking forward to having my 8 yr old triplet girls go back to school.
After having them home for two months and trying to deal with thier squables and demands has left me mentally and emotionally worn out.
Having them go back to school...is like having a small personal 6 hr a day vacation for me. :)
How about you guys...are any of you looking forward to having your kids go back to school?

Haha, I could have written those same words... I'm looking forward to my mini vacation as well! My daughter goes back today and my oldest son goes back next week. I cannot wait. I am just beat from the constant fighting and other drama between the two of them this summer. I don't know if it is just the age or not, but it's been really really rough.

I had a harder time than usual with it this year. We have had such a great summer, the first really good summer for me in about 3 years. Add to that, my dd is in her final year at the Christian school she's gone to all her life. Then my son started middle school too.

But now that it's underway, I am glad:). I love the peace and quiet around here.
