In the short run,for the besieged parent, it is a war but one that can be won. First, choose your battles carefully. You cannot avoid every exposure of your kids to jiggly flesh or sub-human behavior. You have to relax and laugh a lot of it off. At the same time, it is the parent who has much more influence, when there is love in the house. Paraphrasing what we sang in another context in the 70′s, “Teach your children well. Their father’s hell will slowly go by.”
On the broad front, the only answer, and one that discomfits the libertarian-secular crowd, is to return to a Biblical worldview. Evil exists. It exists in all our hearts. Not everything is “√ñK” and should be permitted.We need to be protected, especially our children from our very selves.
