I don’t have phones, but my family does have a rule we aren’t allowed to bring technology into our rooms. Exceptions are made for the house phone for music or audiobooks, and occasionally the tablet for school. I don’t know that I’ve seen someone using tech super healthily. Maybe my mom. Neither of my parents are that bad with it,…[Read more]

@trailblazer

My parents use their phones in a healthy way, as does the husband and wife of dear family friends. (their kids don’t have phones either) but honestly the majority of the people i see and know spend more time on their phone than on anything else.

@jonas

Good to see you popping back in here again!

I just took the survey! This is something I’ve been thinking about a lot lately. If anyone is open to discussion, I’d be curious to hear your thoughts!

For those of you who do have phones, what boundaries have you set/have your parents established around it? Or perhaps, what boundaries do you…[Read more]

Ok, I wasn’t gonna get into this conversation, but now here I am, lol.

I’d be careful about pulling out specific verses without carefully examining the context of the rest of the passage… but if you want to look at specific verses then I’d suggest looking at other verses that also talk about being saved.

“…From the beginning God chose you to…[Read more]

“May you please explain that? Are you quiet? Dangerous? Do you often solve mysteries? Or start them? And does this relate to how you are a thief?

It means no one knows anything about me.

“Oh…. Those are some…. awful descriptions! Uhm…. do you have any friends? And do you know why people call you that? Maybe you should try putti…

Celarent: Given my criminal background, I find it unlikely that even my good look and charm [he smiles] will be enough to get me elected to Council in a few years when I’m old enough to run. If I can buy off a few people, or bribe leading politicians to endorse me, my chances of winning are much higher.

@grcr

Alas, almost no one spreads exciting rumors about me, but my brother once told his friends that I’d tried to burn the house down, which is mostly untrue. I didn’t try to, and almost nothing burned. I’ve heard that the girl down the street’s parents may be associated with an evil plot against America, but that was from my grandma, and she…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

I am usually awoken by a maid around 7. I am dressed and my hair is done. Then I am escorted to the dining hall. After breakfast, quite formal usually, I have schooling. My first subject is math.

[Vyette thinks for a minute]  Important decisions? My father will not even allow me to marry the man whom I want. I am not sure which man…[Read more]

By the way @peoples, do you all baptize infants? Why or why not?

@power

Basically, everything @whalekeeper said. XD

If someone walked into a room and shouted fire, I could say I believe them all I want to, but if I have faith in what they are saying, I will actually get out of the building.

What if you believe them, but the door jams and you can’t access a window? Sometimes baptism is not possible, and to say…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Mornings are best…at 12:00-200am.

@theducktator

*gasp* I thought those people were myths!

XD He was sick today, which is unfortunate, but at least he behaved.

@jonas

I filled it out! I’m a sheltered homeschooler with no phone, so I’m definitely not average here. XD

tagging a couple more people….

@jonas

Oh, that doesn’t sound too bad. (says the person who wakes up at 5:00 every morning because she likes it)

Yes! I just took it and sent it in. Hopefully you’ll find something useful. I’m not really the average person when it comes to tech usage. 😅

@jonas

Hi Jonas!

How was the first year of “big kid school”? (that’s how it’s referred to over here. 😉)

I’m not a techy person, so We’ll see how helpful I really am. 🤣 I’ll take a look right now though!

@whalekeeper

BUT THOSE ARE THE BEST!

I know it hurts. I actually refused to write for a whole day the last time I had to do that, but it’s the one that gets everyone because deep inside they know it’s coming and they don’t want it to.
