Interesting that you, Fr. Mark, and Fr. Mike Schmitz both talked about Aaron Rowlston today!! Thank you for an excellent homily - we all need constant help navigating the social media issue. We have implemented a family policy that our children do not get a phone until 16 once they are driving. It has worked so well. Sure we get some pushback once and awhile, but it’s really been helpful. We seem to enjoy the moment & life!! There are times that I wish I could get in touch with one of my children, but I’m quickly reminded of the headaches & worries we don’t have because of no social media and phones.
I am so glad I did't have the internet growing up. So tired of voicemails instead of talking to each other. I don't watch t.v. much anymore. It is so much trash on it. Glad I grew up in happier times.
This was an awesome sermon!! And so true. I love the idea of working on the problem as a parish. I am going to ask our pastor if we can do the same. Thank you, Father!!
Fr Mark Bernhard may all the parents fill with the holy spirit to take control over their children so that they will be very safe in God's hands Amen thank you fr 🙏 Amen
I’m so glad I didn’t have a phone or social media until late highschool, but I’m also glad I had access to an iPad that was clearly there to be used as a tool. I was able to write papers for school on it and eventually got into creative writing because of this tool. I wrote my first book on an iPad. So I’d say it’s important to ensure kids don’t have free rein too early, but it’s also important to give kids a healthy relationship with technology. And that relationship can only come through proper, supervised use.
