Focus on the Family is a biblically based, anti-abortion, anti-contraception, abstinence based sex ed, anti-gay, man is the head of the household, rather backwards organization.PNGMK wrote:Focus on the Family is also good.Strong Eagle wrote:For volunteer activities, I highly recommend FOM (Friends of the Museum): http://www.fom.sg/ and aidha... http://www.aidha.org/
With such links as "God's Design for Marriage" and "Understanding Your Husband's Sexual Needs", you can bet you'll get family advice straight out of the 19th century.
Sure... but some people (women included) prefer to live that way. The charity work they're involved in seems pretty harmless.Strong Eagle wrote:Focus on the Family is a biblically based, anti-abortion, anti-contraception, abstinence based sex ed, anti-gay, man is the head of the household, rather backwards organization.PNGMK wrote:Focus on the Family is also good.Strong Eagle wrote:For volunteer activities, I highly recommend FOM (Friends of the Museum): http://www.fom.sg/ and aidha... http://www.aidha.org/

For me focus on family simply means to spend more time with children (for example) who are often neglected if both parents have full time jobs. If the single income is sufficient and one wants to do this (yes, there are some who do it willingly and are happy this way) then why not? If done properly it's a job much harder then many other.
But I am not sure if OP has any children. Without it would be not that much meaningful.

Yeah, I watch that channel regularly.
