[QUOTE="ksm, post: 463645, member: 12511"] I am sorry you are going thru this. If it was me, I'd be looking for a different church that is more kid friendly. Three hours is too long. Not sure if that includes a Sunday School setting where the kids go for an hour or not. We have church for 1 hour, coffee time 20-30 minutes where people visit, then classes based on ages for kids/teens or adults based on interest. Some churches we have been at had a basket of "musical" instruments likes tamborines, things that rattle or beat on, and young kids grabbed an instrument during music and got in the aisles and had fun. Others had ribbon streamers and girls would dance around waving the streamers. Our church has a basket of clipboard with papers and crayons the kids can take in with them. We have had a young man in our church with a brain injury that would some times shout out stuff unexpectedly. Everyone just understood it was unintentional. Kind of funny when our new pastor came for her first visit and preached her first sermon... I don't think anybody warned her ahead of time. But she got thru it. Hope you find a church that is open and friendly. A little disturbance is not going to ruin worship... Even Jesus caused a ruckus in the temple and tipped over the tables of people trying to do business at church. KSM [/QUOTE]
