Teaching my kids
Wow – what an intense story! Oh, my. I hardly know where to start.
I wonder about what this lady’s childhood was like – what else was going on in the home? What were the parents into? Was there abuse? Were there other doors left open that made this girl vulnerable? I’m not looking to lay blame on someone – I’m just curious; I wish I could know more.
To be totally honest, it frightens me to think such a thing could happen. (I’m resolving right now to pray spiritual protection over my kids daily…)
As a parent, there’s always a temptation to shy away from topics that are tough. If my kids don’t bring it up, why would I introduce them to the realities of the spiritual world right now?
Okay, now I have a reason. My prayer is that we will have the wisdom to know what to say and how to say it, and we’ll trust that God will bring the understanding to them.
