Parents are responsible for their children.  Period.  This is a clear global understanding in humanity.  What if I told you that parents agree with this until the spirituality of their children comes up.  American families have gradually come to the position that the church is responsible for the spirituality of their children and nothing else.  In other words, parents want autonomy on things like letting their children date, giving their children smartphones at 6 years old, etc.  These same parents pass the spiritual buck of their children on to the church.  Is this what God says is suppose to happen between parents with their children and the church?  Is there any way God can still be glorified and churches can still foster methods that help parents with the spirituality of their own children successfully, rather than keep the drum beating to the current methods that continue to fail miserably?
