I`m somewhat of a newbie, thanks for sharing. There`s some forgiveness but I`m still along way off from forgetting! Day by day.

Why are we here...more form the Wanderlustguy archives
by wanderlustguy inbeen diggin through my old stuff, thought since there's been so many newbies i'd repost it.
sorry about the punctuation marks turning to ?s, haven't figured out how to fix that when pasting from word.
"here" is not talking about the planet or why we are alive, but why are you reading this?

They have screwed-up ideas about forgiveness
by LongHairGal inthis was another issue i had with them.
no matter what someone did, no matter how bad and even if the person was dfd and came back some would welcome them with open arms.
it was almost as if they were being rewarded for their wrongdoing.

Congratulations from me to Ellie!
These people just have not understood the complete teachings of Jesus is my opinion. I too lived through this experience as a young teenager, family, friends......... nothing. You would have thought I was the harlot herself!!!
But it was ok, that my folks lied and did devious things to claim this child from me, true Christians. Forgive, maybe, I have somewhat through the years, but forget?! You have my sympathies.

Oh geeezz I can get behind this post ALOT!!! I hate my first name! Tammara.....teachers NEVER knew how to pronounce it correctly, then toss in my last name, I was always embarrassed the first day of school. I have been called Tammy most of my life and then when I reached my 30`s I didn`t like being called that, it didn`t make me feel like an adult much! I do like my middle name though it`s Elaine. I always liked the name Theresa, or Stacey, maybe even Stephanie.

What went against your nature
by Satanus inin the dub life, some things that were against my nature that i did were giving talks, door to door selling, classroom debates, exclude myself from school activities, shunning dfd ones, not doing the pagan/christian celebrations, and um,, abstaining from sex.
on the other hand, some stuff i liked was studying some of the ideas in the books, although my enjoyment of this tapered off.
i sometimes enjoyed arguing doctrine and attacking evolution.

Bullies
by Nancy Drake inhi ya'll.. i'm looking for advice on how to handle a neighborhood child that is bullying my son and other children in my apartment complex.
he is very mean, takes my son's stuff, tries to trip him on his bike by putting a stick into his spokes, pulling his underwear up, cussing at him.
at first i tried to talk to him nicely, asked him to please not do mean things to other children.

My sympathies totally Nancy Drake for you and your child right now. There is nothing more emotional for a mother than watching her child being at the end of a bullies anger. My 14 year old is going through this as well this year. He is not a small kid, 5`7, 140- 145 lbs., he`s getting harassed by two boys who were his FRIENDS!! Now they have decided to pick on him together! Over their Spring Break a week ago we had an instant message pop up and my husband standing right there didn`t recognize who it was so he clicked on it. This was one of these boys, the one boy my son had given our IM name to because he had talked to him a few times this way, anyway this kid was thinking he was talking to my son, he was calling him a *fag*, a *fat ass*, and a few other choice names! My husband said to him "this is not who you think you are talking to, and that this was an adult", do you think this stopped him??! NO! he then proceeds to call my husband names!! The thing is they had no clue that we have a just a small handful of people we give our IM name to so we quickly deduced where this could possibly have come from. The one boy lives downstairs from us, so my husband jumps up from the computer and knocks on their door, sure enough the one kid was on the computer, and from where my husband stood he could see the same colors on his screen that were appearing on ours! The mother played innocent, "Oh no not my kid"!! when all evidence was right there, her son even leaned back and quickly clicked off the computer screen and messages!! ANGRY! Yes! my husband was! He told this kid to stay away from ours not even to breathe in his general direction or come near him or look at him ever again!!
Now the other kids parents were called, first he answered his mom`s cell phone, and cussed my husband again and hung up! We tried again and the mom answered and said they would handle it.
The husband calls my hubby later and is all mad saying my husband is harassing his wife and kid and threatening them??!!! He tells him the story, he leaves it at that "they will take care of it". Last week the principal was notified because their first day back this other kids older brother was caught circling my son at lunch and saying he was going to jump him!! Oh, the drama and stress are unbearable at times. So we are waiting to see what unfolds this week. Sorry about the longness of this, but like you I felt the need to vent this!! Thanks! Good luck on your end with this.
