Kirk Cameron Talks Social Media Safety
In a social media-centered world, the smart phone has become a cultural rite of passage for kids. But is that rite all wrong? With six teens, Kirk Cameron fully understands this dilemma and he was inspired to produce a social media documentary. He understands all about how important it is to watch his children actively engage in the internet life.
Social media is not completely bad, but if it is mismanaged, it can cause a lot of conflict with developing young adults. It requires balance, and with raising teenagers, learning that balance is so necessary. So Kirk Cameron’s goal with the launch of this project is to educate parents on the dangers of social media. He wants to encourage them to engage in interaction with their children and establish good communication. He urges parents to stay connected with their kids. And that is why he titled the documentary, "Connect".
Kirk points out a valid fact that parents of the previous generation did not have teenagers who had access to the internet world. So, today’s parents are dealing with something that has not been an issue for a parent before. And through Kirk Cameron’s project, he hopes that parents know that they have support. How do you think this project will help families?

A Prayer of Comfort for Families Missing Their Fallen Military Heroes - Your Daily Prayer - May 27
Because the general public views them as fallen heroes deserving of patriotic honor, many may mistakenly think that this somehow helps to soften the blow of the loss to their family members. But for many families, it can be extremely difficult to accept and process, especially because their passing is without warning, unexpected, and with no opportunity to say goodbye.
