Bedroom sewage pipes

Albert Mohler has written convincingly about the dangers of allowing children to have televisions in their bedrooms.

And if you're wondering whether or not that topic will preach, consider these words from Cornelius Plantinga on Rev. 2:17 and television:
Do you know that even conservative Christian parents buy TV sets for the bedrooms of their ten-year-olds and then let them watch pretty much whatever they want? They buy a TV set for their fifth grader, hook it up to the cable system, hand their child a remote, and let their child close the door.

And now, day by day, night by night, their child’s soul is in the hands of the Philistines. The Lord wants to give our children a white stone with their true name on it, but our children are finding out who they are from people to whom Lord is just another four-letter word.
Kyrie eleison.
