youth trip

We just came back from my daughter's first ever youth trip. It was a jr high beach retreat. Shareen was the only homeschooler on the trip. I'm hoping I can wisely use some of what I observed to help her understand some things better. I was absolutely appalled at the way some of the other girls talked/dressed/acted. I'm not talking real teenagers here. I mean 12 and 13 yro. I couldn't believe it. And it's not that I'm naive to the ways of the world. Trust me, I could tell you some stories. But 12 years old! My daughter is 12 and I would pass out if I saw her acting in some of these ways. My daughter is no better than anyone and we are all sinners. We all need Christ. I guess I'm just venting frustration that no one is talking to these girls and telling them what they need to know. Maybe the Lord will give me the words to say. Please pray for them. Keep us in your thoughts and prayers as our unschooling journey continues!
