• 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.

Post until I get back from an appoint and other things...

sounds like a type of "white coat"syndrome. or a reverse of that thing where moms say kids are sick..
We are all used to it. We hide our ailments from her. My youngest daughter hid a broken arm for several days before she could no longer take the pain. Then she was worried about her sister having a problem.

It is all about attention though. If someone is getting more attention, then she starts up.
You should have sen her when her sister was in labor. :doh: We had to send her to bed.

I know kids and adults like that. I actually know a person whose boyfriend died from an accidntal overdose because she had just had surgery and he wasn't getting all the attntion.
