Ask Christopher West Protestants & Catholics, Sharing Your Past with Your Children, & STORY TIME WITH WENDY! | ACW313
Questions answered this episode:
_1. How can Catholics and students of TOB help bridge the gap when protestants and Catholics read a different set of books of the Bible?
- My fiancé & I had some intense experiences as teenagers. I was rped as a child and that broke me so much that I was consuming prn from a very young age and had an active and uncontrolled sx life. I felt particularly alone in this matter because growing up all I ever heard was that prn was a boys problem. It took me 10 years to talk about these issues with my parents. My parents never shared with us what their battles and failures were before they became our parents. They seemed to perfect for me to be vulnerable. My fiancé was on drugs as a teen. He recently spoke with his parents about that issue and shared that he could resonate with my experience. Should we in the future as parents open up our past with our sons and daughters? Should we be that open? Could it turn against us?
