• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

I'm trying to work on it, but a big pet peeve with me is snobbery - people acting like they're too good to associate with you for no particular reason (or really dumb reasons). It's especially irritating to see this behavior among middle-aged adults such as myself. (Hey, I though we were through with high school ages ago!)


Also, people who will make assumptions about other people without even getting to know them has always bothered me.

Bullying upsets me greatly, too (having been bullied myself as a kid). Especially when it's over something someone can't help (and even if that's not the case, there's never any excuse to bully anyone).

My bed should be a place of safety and relaxation. But so often the kids see it as a place to fart around and get our big fun-loving dog excited - while I'm in it, trying to relax before bed. I yell at them every time, and they still do it! Generally they are respectful any other time, even the dog is respectful. But there is something about the bed, and I am about to phone Dr Laura about it! (not really)

Yes, and it's even worse when bullying continues into adulthood. This can sometimes make for tension and uneasy feelings just about any place where such people are present, especially at work.
