That is exactly the point. An 18-24 year old has a cryptic narcissism about them. “Nothing really bad will happen to me”. No matter how well you brought up your kids, the temptation of a young person to go to a party like that to have fun is overwhelming. After about age 30 they start acting more rationally and show proper caution. Never sleep well Saturday nights when my kids are “out with their friends”. Just pray. Have to feel for those parents who lost kids. Hope the city officials are held accountable for not enforcing the law.

Teaching kids sense has to begin early. An appreciation for the created order and what it was created for, has to be part of it. Not too tight; not too loose. Not too much; not too little. With a glory that is given from heaven in spite of its suffering.

If that worldview has not been presented by the time they are older, it might be too late, and we’re reduced to just praying.
