As Christian parents, we should make our kids’ spiritual lives a priority. It is a virtual guarantee against raising a racist or bigot. Notice I used the term “spiritual” and not the term “religious” because religion has produced bigots.
Likewise, before we allow a therapist to label our kids with a mental or emotional disorder, let’s first consider whether Junior’s issues might actually be moral rather than mental; and like racism, rooted in the spiritual realm.
