One thing perplexes me and that is the indifference of most Christian parents to what is taught to their children in Schools- from primary to high school and of course the university. Most parents spend their time working very hard to get the money to pay their children’s school fees so that their remain in school and attend classes with minimal disruptions. What I don't understand is why we should go to all that trouble making sure that our children are educated but care very little about what they are being educated about.
Isn’t it time that we as parents, pastors and believing professors examine the contents of the educational curriculum used in teaching our children? If for no other reason, to satisfy ourselves that what they are learning is consistent with the faith in Christ Jesus we are teaching them at home? Or have we forgotten that we are accountable to God (and will give that account very soon) for how we raised our children? Doesn’t what is fed into the minds of our children count? Children whom we are responsible for raising for Christ? Your comments are welcome!
