The answer
Unfortunately this overuse of networking is placing our youth in jeopardy. As for MyCrib, MySpace and Facebook, there is some concern. Gossiping and public criticism and condemnation of others has become quite offensive. The pictures of the youth that are posted are compromising to their dignity as Christians; and for some, even more so because they are pre-servants and servants. The youths participating in these activities may not have negative intentions, but too much negative outcomes have resulted. We may not be able to stop them from engaging in these activities altogether, but as parents or servants, we can intervene by setting boundaries as to what is acceptable and what is not; and consistently encourage them to agree to operate within the appropriate guidelines.Answered by His Eminence Metropolitan Youssef (opens in a new tab)
