Do you believe in giving people a second chance if they make a mistake?

I am a very strong believer in giving people a second chance, because as you say we all make mistakes. Everyone makes an error of judgement or does something out of character once in a while, so it is no big deal. It does not really matter whether they deserve a second chance or not, because time will show this anyway. If we give someone a second chance and it proves to be wrong we can always change our mind about it later. However, if we do not give them a second chance then it is too late to decide that we were wrong.

for the most part, i would give people a 2nd chance. but sometimes it depends on what they did as well. mostly in relationships, they don't have much chances, especially if caught cheating.

I truly believe when ppl do make mistakes and they should be given a second chance. I will always give the second chance, but if they blow it again that's it. I will not keep giving out the chances, they need to take the responsibility to make sure they do good with the second chance, because there will be none given after that.

i believe in giving second chances

Yes. Everyone makes mistakes. But making them more than once...i would quit giving chances...and it depends on what kind of mistake..and how much it hurt. Sometimes it is hard to forgive.

I can forgive if the mistake is not very serious one....... yes I agree we r all human and we make mistakes but theres a degree of stupidness...... if someone makes the same mistake again n again...... u cant forgive...... that mistake bcomes his habit... sometimes forgiving spoils people.......

I agree with you, we are human and deserve a second chamce.

Every one deserves a second chance. We all make mistakes, there is no one who is perfect and if we reject all those who make mistakes we would have to keep hunting for the person to spend the rest of our lives with and still land up alone. so giving a second chance is a good idea

Yes, I think people deserve a second chance if they make a mistake, but people who deliberately do bad things do not deserve a second chance.

I usually am able to forgive someone when they make a mistake and they genuinely regret it. Like you said, everyone needs a second change and no one's perfect! But if the person wh makes the mistake insists they are right especially after having hurt someone, I don't think they deserve to be forgiven. It's happened to me a couple of times...and I kept forgiving the person and realized he was just taking me for granted and expecting that he could control everything about me.

The only way to live an everlasting life in marriages is to forgive.Once you forgive you creates youself a chance to be forgiven.However forgiveness is a natural talent from God. I do believe in giving people a second chance.I know that even me I sometimes do mistakes.this implies that I will too need to be forgiven.If you try to forgive you will really feel happier than befor.

I would give them a second chance.. forgive them... but if they do anything like that again... I dont know how I would react.

I honestly think it matters on the type of mistake we are talking about, Yes we are all human and being a human we all make mistakes but there are some mistakes that are unforgivable! I think it is up to the person and it depends on the situation, i have forgiven my faince for heaps of stuff and he has for me to but i know if he ever cheated i wouldnt forgive!

All humans make mistakes and need to be forgiven and yes all should have a second chance

no good punishment deserves to be missed

yes, i will. nobody's perfect, and i sometimes made same mistakes. it's worth to give them second chance, made your relationship well...

I believe in giving people a second chance, but only if they really believe themself that they made a mistake and they really want to change and so I guess it boils down to if you know how to read a person to determine if they're lying or not. It says in the Bible that we should forgive every single time, but I wonder if God wants us to be taken advantage of, so I think He wants us to be discerning. This is just my opinion, but forgiving is a hard thing to do, whoever does this, in my opinion is considered a true Christian.
