Instead we want to let them decide for themselves. Our children are not facing neutrality in other areas of life. Everywhere they turn, the Devil's influence is seen. They see it on television, in the books they read, in the school yard, and yes . . . This is why God tells us that we must teach our children from an early age.
Parents offer the life preserver that can keep their children from spiritual hardness.
The problem is not as much television as it is parents surrendering their influence to the tv tube. Children from non-Christian homes desperately need Christian friends, relatives, and teachers. They need to learn from someone that their life is not just a chance happening. Someone needs to tell these children that Jesus loves them. That's why we have put such a premium on developing a good youth program.
