First, I'm glad that there is a place people who are hurting can come and receive advice and prayer, I think it's wonderful to be able to help those in need.
However...
This forum is so darn sad, a lot of people avoid it. I know I do, sometimes. It gets overwhelming, seeing thread after thread of "my marriage is ending" or "he/she cheated, what do I do?" type stuff.
I know most of us have families...and things we do with our families...and happy times with our families...
I guess I'm wondering, isn't there anything else that could be discussed in the family forum? What kinds of threads would draw people here more? To be fair, I honestly can't think of anything myself, so I'm not expecting much of a response to this. I guess I just feel frustrated that there's this entire section on the forum labeled "Family", yet it's almost entirely about broken families, so much so that it's painful just to skim the thread titles.
Does this even bother anybody else?
