When there is a threat to our families, there is wisdom in learning about what the threat is and then making adjustments where necessary to compensate. In this episode, you will learn about two trends that represent threats to the healthy growth of our children. The first threat is the increased tendency to make agreements and then ignore them. This allows people into the process of negotiating, and instead of honoring contracts or agreements, use them instead to gain an advantage. The second threat is the socialized and institutionalized acceptance of laziness and complacency regarding work, relationships, and religious commitments. This has always been an issue, but nowadays it is often supported by many peers and adults.
