Anyone know where I can find an Examination of Conscience for Young Children ON-LINE? Like this one?
We have several in book form, etc, but want something I can just print out in my own format for the FHC notebook, without typing, etc.....
Thanks!

We really like this one. I love the way they handle the sixth and ninth commandments for children. I never would have thought to explain "covet thy neighbor's wife" to mean "do I allow my parents to spend time with one another, or do I get jealous and want them to pay attention only to me".

I'm bumping this up because the link recommended above no longer works, and I'm looking for a good exam. of conscience for my seven-year-old.

From DomesticChurch.com
Children's Examination of Conscience
An important part of preparation for confession, whether it is first or fortieth, is an examination of conscience. It is easy though, to be distracted or forgetful while doing an examination of conscience. For this reason, recommended lists of questions or meditations are created. The basic outline always follows the Ten Commandments. These also provide a good framework for teaching your child about confession and teaching a early or simple definition of sin. The following is an examination of conscience created for children, source unknown.
Responsibilities to God.
•Have I prayed every day?
•Have I prayed my morning and night prayers?
•Have I prayed with my parents and family?
•Have I been moody and rebellious about praying and going to church on Sunday?
•Have I asked the Holy Spirit to help me whenever I have been tempted to sin?
•Have I asked the Holy Spirit to help me do what is right?
Responsibilities to others
•Have I been obedient and respectful to my parents?
•Have I lied or been deceitful to them or to others?
•Have I been arrogant, stubborn or rebellious?
•Have I talked back to parents, teachers or other adults?
•Have I pouted and been moody?
•Have I been selfish toward my parents, brothers and sisters, teachers or my friends?
•Have I hit anyone?
•Have I held grudges or not forgiven others?
•Have I treated other children with respect or have I made fun of them and called them names?
•Have I used bad language?
•Have I stolen anything? Have I returned it?
•Have I performed my responsibilities: Have I done my homework? Done my household chores? Have I tidied up my rom and my toys when asked?
•Have I been helpful and affectionate toward my family?
•Have I been kind and generous with my friends?

Barbara, I don't know what it is not working as a link - the address that is in the link is the correct one for that particular Examination of Conscience. I've been playing with it trying to get it to link but it's not working - something keeps making the "P" in father's name lower case in the url link and then won't work. So here is the actual url which you can cut and paste.
http://www.transporter.com/FatherPeffley/Doctrine/Conscience .html
(remove the space - don't know why it keeps adding that in...)
If you still have trouble go directly to the page before the Examination of Conscience it's the index page, then click on the 1st Children's Examination of Conscience.

That is weird - I tried it off and on from Matilda's post for an hour and it wasn't working. It is working now for me, too.

Thanks so much everyone. I was able to make it to the page (I went through the index link). I've got it bookmarked, so I shouldn't have any further issues.

And thanks LeeAnn for the one you listed. I want something for my daughter to put in her FHE lap book as well as to keep handy for regular use.  So I may try to mash the two together and try to fit them on one sheet in a clearer and bigger font (for my emerging reader).
