A question about younger members

Is there an age limit to AFF? My 16 year old daughter is wanting to join to have a little bit of fellowship with folks. Would that be okay? Thanks!!

Re: A question about younger members

I personally wouldn't recommend it. There are very divergent views shared here. You have everything from atheist, agnostics, to Muslims etc..... that post here. There are also varied opinions here to what even constitutes fundamental apostolic doctrine.

I would be concerned for my children to participate here. In my opinion it could cause confusion if they aren't firm in what they believe and why they believe it.

Okay, thank you. I'm really not on here much and wasn't sure about the environment.

I would not recommend it for someone so young.

This forum has debates about Apostolic Doctrines and sometimes the debates take wrong turns.

In reality this forum is for Apostolics who are strongly rooted in the faith and are able to defend the faith against attacks by some non-believers. (Trinitarians, atheists and other similar types)

I very much agree.
