Children are impressionable. That is how they are designed to be so that they may learn from their parents. But evil people can use this trait to their own advantage. This is how the Left indoctrinates children into a communist belief system, and now it’s how homosexuals are indoctrinating children into their own perverted lifestyle.
The sin of corrupting children is especially hateful to Him and is expressly singled out for an exceptionally severe judgment.
Prov. 6; Matt. 18:6 and Luke 17:2
