[quote=Anonymous]I did younglife as a teen and college student and while I have great memories from it, I would proceed with caution with my own kids or at least set major boundaries around it. I love that it gives kids an exposure to a Christian environment especially with the alcohol and drug peer pressure, but at least in my experience, there were a lot of immature adults involved in the program, especially some of the women. I did YoungLife in the Deep South in 2 different cities and I never saw anything homophobic or mysogonistic, but did see some instances of adults playing favorites and being way too open emotionally about their issues with teens. For me now as an adult I cannot imagine talking about my deepest darkest mental health issues with 16 year olds and frankly think it’s inappropriate. I do credit YL as being instrumental in my own faith formation but also know that there are tons of churches that encourage more parent involvement. [/quote]
