  • 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.

My heart is breaking...:cry: .. My son (14 almost 15) has been expelled from school. I'd rather not go into the details, but it's a big deal. I'm not sure what to do..... he's a good kid. He has ADHD and takes meds, but they don't seem to help with him applying himself much. He doesn't care a flip about school and you almost cannot light a fire under him about anything unless he wants to do it. You can't bribe, restrict, spank or take anything away either......... these things don't work, he couldn't care less to do without anything! :sigh:

Please keep us in your prayers......... what to do...... about school, meds, what he will do until school is out etc...... Thank you!

Open his ear to hear You Father and soften his heart towards the things that make for life...life worth living.

Thank you Anglewind and MagicLady! :hug:

Just to make things clearer, the expellation has more to do with attitudes and thoughts about school....

Heavenly Father, I pray for this young man, that You'll work in him to change his attitude towards school, and in any other area where there's a problem. I pray that PromiseSeeker will be able to find what motivates him, and that he'll find a reason to care, and to apply himself- to fulfill the purpose You gave him.

Amen

I'm going to pray for your son right away.

I was misdiagnosed when I was 3 with lung disease and didn't find out until I was nearly 12 that I had no problems. (benign tumor in my face) Anyways, the drugs made me really misbehave and I did really bad in school so I can understand the situation.

May the Lord be with you and give you strength and lift you from sadness; may you be guided and have insight as to how you can best support your son; may he have great strength and focus, hope for the future, and resolution to help him meet his needs; may he have all the support, love, patience and guidance that everyone on his path may offer. INJC :prayer:

Lord please be with this family as they lean on you for support into telling them what they need to do as well as who to turn to and that they need to find another school that will accept their son as well as also be more understanding of the learning disability that their son has. In thy name, amen!!
