Seen But Not Heard?
Whatever happened to being seen but not heard? Diana West asks that question in a recent essay, noting that there has been a massive shift in Western culture away from adult authority and toward the “wise child.” All around us are signs that authority and wisdom are now to be recognized in the young, rather than the old. This is nothing less than a reversal of what previous generations had believed and assumed. On today’s program, Dr. Mohler notes that the bible teaches that children are fallen and in need of wisdom from their parents. Adults should not be afraid to help their children by being exactly what they are called to be: good parents.
