5 Dangerous Things You Should Let Your Children Do

My friend Chris over at A New Kind of Youth Ministry has an excellent post that I will be watching in the next couple of days about the dangerous things we should let our students do in our youth ministries. His spark for this discussion came from this TED presentation on "5 Dangerous Things You Should Let Your Children Do." Watch it!



Here are Chris' 5, actually 6, dangerous things we should let our students do:

1. Dance with doubt
2. Discover truth for themselves
3. Disengage from reality every now and then
4. Dispatch their story, not someone elses
4.5 Determine their own future
5. Deconstruct what they are told, see and come to “know”

I loved this video. Parents need to relax and let kids enjoy new things!
