So often we think that we are getting away with something or that no one will notice. If you have children, they notice everything and mimic others. If you repeat an action often enough, it becomes a habit. So now your habits have become their habits, as well. How you react to a situation will be noted, internalized and stored there to help them when they encountered a similar situation. Not only are your outward physical actions being copied but your values, prejudices, & your evaluation system for making choices and judgments.
My husband just signed up for an Ethics class at our local college, in order to keep sharp and for a way to establish relationships with an age group that is seeking truth and for the most part in their college classes receiving lies.
"There is no God" "You can be God" "You are a product of evolution - have no worth & can do what you please"
"Life is short , live it up - when it is over, it is over" "Tolerance, that is what we need - then everyone will get along"
"Christians are stupid" "Tolerance is for all groups, but Christians" "You can't possibly believe that!"
If a student speaks up about their faith in God, they are shredded by the professors. We have mentored many students through our local college system - but now we are going in.
This is a video that they are to watch for this week's class - it proves my point - Children See, Children Do.
