Questions about Christian College Environments

May 18, 2009, 1:54 pm » Chuck Bomar

I was at a Christian high school this morning. Cool kids. We had some good discussion - I was both impressed with some of their thinking and yet disheartened by confusion that was so evident in others.

You could say I'm becoming increasingly concerned about these environments. Whether it be high school or college, I'm finding more and more confusion with those attending these schools. Whether or not it's the school's fault I'm not ready to say, but I can say that people in these environments definitely have some of the same confusions and struggles going on.

Do We Teach our Kids to Lie?

My 11 year old son Ian and I went out to breakfast this morning before school. it was a last minute decision and it basically ensured that he would be a little late. Better mothers than I are more particular about this sort of thing, but I tend to be more liberal with out-to-breakfast mornings and mental health days then I probably should be.

It was about 9:15 when we arrived at the attendance desk - 15 minutes late. Ian knew the drill. He grabbed the neon yellow late slip and began to fill it out.

Name: Ian Dominguez Ball

Date: April 23, 2009

Time: 9:15

Reason for lateness...

I laughed as Ian started to write. "He's sure to tell the truth," I told the attendance lady with a smile as Ian said slowly as he wrote each word, "we....went...out...to...breakfast." Why not? We had gone out to breakfast. No need to pose. Or so I thought...
