I would realize that my FIRST job in life is to PROTECT my children and not fancy myself as fighting some super-spiritual battle like I thought I was. I was pretty self-deluded. And deluded other-wise. But, thankfully I have been able to apologize to my children and move on rather than them moving on without me and me telling them they are going to hell because they aren't the fools I was.
You woudn't allow it again? What did God tell you to do?
