I think a 40 year old woman has a great advantage in mentoring teens and young moms because of her vitality and also because she can relate parenting skills more effectively because she's still there. (It's amazing how much we forget over time :) I was 16 in 1967 and you're right there's essentially nothing new under the sun - except the technology. There are certain lifestyles now I think that are acceptabe which were still frowned upon then, despite the 60's - and I think that has put more pressure on young people today. I saw that shift pretty dramatically here on the west coast in the public schools in the 10 years between our eldest and youngest. But the solution remains ageless and as always is mighty to transform.

Also we teach a lot about God's grace when we live it, show it to others, and receive it ourselves.
