After reading this Time Magazine article, it motivated me to wonder, whatever happened to concerned and responsible parents as to knowing what activities their children are engaged in? One of the reasons is that fathers have abdicated their responsibility as fathers (see here).Since one in four marriages end in divorce (see article), there is no longer a cohesive family unit (see the six types of family structures in our society here). So, who ends up raising the children? Sad to say, it becomes the grandparents responsibility (and for the most part, that arrangement doesn't turn out well). Sadly, the collapse of marriage in our society, is the principle cause of child poverty and welfare dependence (see here).
Beloved, children need (and want) to be given discipline and direction. Without discipline in both the home and our public schools, there is no education (see here). Without modesty being taught children in the form of decorum, decency, and dignity (see here), young girls will continue to "feel pressured to comply with requests to send naked photos of themselves to boys who demand them" (see above Time Magazine article).
This madness will never end until folks are willing to read about and look at the biblical solution to the above societal issues .... getting back to God's plan for marriage and the family, and that Parental involvement in children's lives is a must (not optional).
Rest assured, God's marriage plan for the family works perfectly every time. Man's plan only ends in chaos and confusion, which God is not the author of (1 Corinthians 14:33). Rather, He is the God of "order" (1 Corinthians 14:40; cf. Genesis 18:19).
