Rather than laughing at college students who object to free speech in the name of free speech, Doug Payton muses on why people misuse free speech. He makes some good points.
Semi-related (because it might help explain why so many college students are so touchy and self-centered): A Focus on the Family broadcast this week addressed (among other things) how ‘parenting experts’ have been pulling parents off track for a couple of generations or so, by stressing achievement and self-esteem, instead of respect for others, responsibility and resourcefulness. See Parenting Concepts That Work (Part 1 of 2), November 4, 2010.
I missed today’s broadcast and haven’t had a chance to listen to it yet online, but here’s the link: Parenting Concepts That Work (Part 2 of 2).
In the first broadcast, the panel agreed that it’s not just the children who suffer, but the parents, when the parents try to meet contemporary standards of supposedly good parenting.
