I asked the youth in Sunday School to come up with ideas for a theme for our spring retreat in March; also, for menu ideas (as in, Okay, what will you eat?) They did both. As regards topics for discussion, their teacher told me they wanted to talk about drug abuse and teen-age sex.

What about music? I asked.

Well, yes, they mentioned that, too.

Great! If my generation can claim expertise about anything, it's Sex, Drugs, and Rock & Roll. : )
