I have been struggling with this lately as I know my children should learn about the Bible, but sometimes I fear them too young to understand it. But you are right. I have been thinking of this because some videos we like change certain stories to make them kid-friendly, leaving out parts about sex or mature themes. It has bothered me because that is changing God's word, isnt it? to omit parts that are uncomfortable to talk about? I have not done this with my kids, but have instead not shared much of the Bible with them at all. I will change this immediately. (My kids are 2 and 4, btw.) Thank you for this article.
