I have never posted here before, so I know that no one here knows me, but I really need prayers for my family, in particular my 16 yo son. We are fairly new to homeschooling and have been so blinded by so many things in our society. Now that we are on the right path, by the grace of God, we are making some changes and it is very difficult. My son has been allowed way too much access to the internet with horrendous results, and now we are trying desperately to do damage control. There is so much going on that I really can't get into, but I will be so grateful for any prayers said for us. Thank you so much!
With great hope,
Dina
Mom of 6 beautiful blessings from God

We will be praying for you. I have my son's computer on our kitchen table so we can watch him and make sure he isn't wasting time. It is so difficult...they WILL go somewhere else if they can. We just started homeschooling my son a year ago when he was 16 too. It was tough, but as a 17 year old, he has changed for the better in so many areas.
God bless you...you are in my prayers.
Bridget

God bless you, Dina. Will pray. I have a dear 16 year old son, too. We must place them in the Immaculate Heart of Our Mother to protect them, and surrender a lot of it to the All-Knowing Heart of God, and not lose our hope!
