"But sometimes we blur the line between right and wrong and personal preference, and it drives our kids up the wall.
Why do we sometimes pressure our kids concerning their tastes and preferences… We sincerely want to guide them in the right direction but sometimes get a little overzealous about it.

We have a strong desire to transfer our Christian values and worldview…but at times we stretch biblical teaching to include personal tastes and preferences."
