Assuming that you have taken cognisance of our words and
               that you are now looking to the future welfare of your youth,
               and including the encouragement of a greater awareness of the
               spiritual nature of their journey, the future for them looks far
               brighter. No longer will their development be solely based on
               your advice and the advice of others but will include a better
               informed  opinion  of  their  own.  They  will  decide  what  they
               feel  is  best  for  them  and  will  have  your  respect  for  that
               decision,  giving  them  the  right  to  choose  and  the  right  to
               accept responsibility for their choices without any “I told you
               so”.  Yet  you  still  carry  a  fear?  What  exactly  is  your  fear
               around this scenario? Do you not trust them to make choices
               for themselves? By your not having the necessary trust in their
               judgement only shows the lack of trust you have in yourself
               and the lack of confidence you have in how you reared this
               child. The fear is all to do with you. There is only one way to
               find out and that is to let what needs to happen happen and
               then to review the results. Though you might step back and
               allow  your  child  this  freedom  you  do  not  do  so  without
               maintaining  your  support  of  them.  Always  wish  them  well,
               entrusting their care to God and those who assist God in this
               task.  Should  you  have  acquainted  your  child  with  the  ever
               presence of Spirit in their lives they will themselves invoke
               our assistance in guiding them along their path. Should you
               have informed them of the Law of Cause and Effect they will
               be  able  to  continuously  monitor  their  own  progress  as  they
               take  their  personal  journey  through  earth  life.  They  will
               become response-abled. The sixteen year old will survey their
               options for their future. It is at this time that they will look at
