It's a great feeling I agree. My kids are adults now. Voted for Bernie in the primary. Disliked Hillary but HATED Trump.
Fast forward to now. My older son told me at breakfast the other day he would absolutely vote for Trump over Biden. Even more encouraging is he said that the powers that be are just trying to break down the nuclear family with all this crazy transgender stuff. To me, that is a seismic shift, not just a situational preference for anything BUT brain dead Biden.
As a parent I felt a huge weight lift in a way. Like they may not be there yet but they are heading in the right direction NCSWIC feeling. Now they just have to find God in a real way. They are still shaking off the indoctrinated "that's so cute that people think that but I believe in SCIENCE!" crap. I literally pray that we will all live long enough for them to get there before judgment day.
85-90% of professing christians put their children in government schools despite the Biblical mandate for parents to teach their children. This is how our country and our churches got corrupted. All education is religious. Period. Now parents have to pray that their grown children will somehow, someway believe God exists. And the Truth is: there’s no guarantee. But the there is a promise to the faithful who did teach their children. Their children will not depart from the way. My sibling’s fruit is all bastard grandchildren. Gov school ed brought morally bankrupt brokenness. Very sad.
That’s simply not true. I can’t tell you how many decades, yes, decades I have heard the excuse of how horrible prices are. For two parents to have a job, you have to buy convenience food, child care, work clothes, extra gas, doctor bills for sick kids…In the end, unless you have a very good salary one spouse ends up paying to work if you actually crunched the numbers
You really mean, in order to have all the things your neighbor has both parents have to work. iphones, flat screen tvs, xbox, cable/internet, stainless appliances, vacations, school clothes etc. and so on.
You can name any excuse and I can rebut it with the caveat that there are exceptions to the rule. But the debate point is directed at professing christians and just from your reasoning alone I don’t think you fit in the category anyhow. After all, why wouldn’t the Bible apply to you if you were? Lastly, from your statements you rely on your own power. I rely on God and the resources that have come our way has been tangible blessings. We just said, no to doing things the world’s way. If you are a Christian you should be saying “ouch”
I am semi-retired and work 3 days a week. My husband is younger than me and still works full time. I collect Social Security and I still need to work at least 3 days. His income is a little higher than median. I have a small home of a thousand square feet. It is paid for I have a vehicle that's paid for and I'm still paying on his vehicle.
We don't go on vacations I have no debt except for the vehicle. I could not quit entirely and live on his salary. The utilities have doubled if not tripled the grocery bill for two people has doubled. My school taxes are $3,000 a year.
We do not own anything flashy that is not me I live meagerly.
I can't begin to imagine raising children on top of all this. I raised my two children and it was difficult because I was the only person working because I was divorced.
So don't begin to tell me the reality that I am living.

The kids you describe as "bastards" were bastards before they ever set foot in any school. Sounds like the parents suffer from "morally bankrupt brokenness", regardless of what school either they or their kids attend.
I attended public schools and private Christian schools. There were literally bastard children who attended both institutions. Neither institution made them the bastards they were at birth.
Whatever school you choose to attend does not define what may be your inherent state of having been conceived by one's parents out-of-wedlock.

This! Voddie Baucham speaks alot about govt school indoctrination and what it's done to the church.
This is good in theory but you have to realize how horrible prices are now and people can't afford to live.
It takes two incomes to survive and still not survive.
People can't afford to pay for private schools or teach at home so your school taxes should go where your child goes that would end this insanity.
