Just wanted to let you know I am with you 100%!! Our kids have so many temptations thrown at them in so many areas it truly breaks my heart. I have 3 boys, with my oldest being 19, then 17 and 14. My 19 still lives at home although he is in college. I still monitor most everything in my home. The rule is,"when you can pay your own bills...you don't have to follow my rules!" It has always been this way since they were old enough to have electronic devices, so they really have no problem or rebellion against it. I believe Jesus holds us accountable as parents to lead them in the right way, to protect them from the evil in the world as much as we can. Our homes need to be a safe haven from the craziness they face out in the world everyday! They have all attended public school, and they have all shared what is out there in their faces as young men, and it sickening at times. They are atheletes and have played travel sports, and in highschool. This area has sometimes been the hardest to deal with as not everyone on their teams have been Christians, or even having the same convictions, and at times they have had to stand alone in what is right in the sight of the Lord. The Lord has honored our obedience to Him! The main thing I think is to teach them to be content with the boundaries that the Lord requires of them as young men. He has always honored our obedience to Him, and I believe through the obedience has protected them from so much!! Just want to let you know that you have a done a great thing in posting this today. Our enemy is out there, he wants our children to fall whether they are homeschooled, private school, or public schools. But....The battle belongs to the Lord, and He will prevail in the lives of our children as long as our hearts seek to do His will and we love Him!!!<br />KellyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7616800623248673769.post-67794274068741396612009-10-21T00:33:27.974-04:002009-10-21T00:33:27.974-04:00Very informative.

Now we're battling the schools in California who want to talk about the gay lifestyle as if it were normal starting with kindergarten. I hope you consider home schooling your little one.Chris Denninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09055213862546094730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7616800623248673769.post-3881908582835464692009-10-20T19:06:55.326-04:002009-10-20T19:06:55.326-04:00I applaud you!

The secretive life they get caught up in and my daughter has now run away from home due to her secretive life...<br /><br />Parents, please, please, please, listen to Misty. Get involved in your children's lives...be restirictive about where they can go on the internet, monitor their activity...and yes, know their passwords...<br /><br />Misty, again, I applaud you!My Hearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07130419060842560213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7616800623248673769.post-88324323372499572432009-10-20T11:58:28.322-04:002009-10-20T11:58:28.322-04:00Preach it!!

It shocks me the things you can do on them! <br />I agree with you 110% on the "invading privacy." I have a 5 year old son and I was just talking to my husband the other night that I am DREADING the day he hears about sex or worse on the playground. They are so young, so innocent- I will do EVERYTHING in my power to protect him. Even if that means "snooping" it will be with love--not just for the sake of snooping. Big difference.<br />Great post!!! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7616800623248673769.post-72198004402992779182009-10-20T10:23:16.504-04:002009-10-20T10:23:16.504-04:00Thank you!!!!
