We’re filtering out the world from our kids so that they don’t desire the things of the world,
and do not feel the peer pressure to be on FB or any other crap like that.
Any time they discuss a worldly issue or desire that they have been exposed to that seems to be appealing, they discuss it with us and we get them to examine it from a Biblical viewpoint. I can’t think of a time where the worldly issue continued to have its appeal after such a discussion. It’s all about exposing the lies for what they are.
We have been somewhat leaning that way with our younger ones.
With our older ones...this FB business didn’t come about until they were well into their teens.
They used it to chat with buddies - but it wasn’t a big deal.
With my younger ones - I’m more wary, because it has changed since it first came out.
We’ve recently stopped contributing to the gaming industry.
The only wii or ps2 products that come home anymore are exercise-oriented (they’ve been dancing away to Zumba all week)
I’m about ready to hammer down on the music.
Music has always been a struggle...but lately the crap coming out is downright evil.
It’s tough keeping up...you can ban it at home, but they share music at school.
Some kids that have fancy smartphones at school are using them to snicker over porn....I hate those freaking things!
