Russell Moore at Mere Comments on the children's cell phone:
We are living in a culture that is so under-protective of children that we are willing to pack them off to institutionalized daycare as toddlers and subject them to sexualization in grade school. And yet the same culture is so overprotective of children that we don't teach them to learn how to cope with life. Our kids can't take the rigors of dodge-ball or competitive T-ball, and yet they are fully able to dress like Brittney Spears and learn to put a condom on a cucumber in health class?
Is it any wonder that, by young adulthood, our children aren't able to make even the most basic of decisions without hitting the speed-dial for home?
