I LOVE being sheltered. Naturally, there are times when it is frustrating; however, I can't say "Thank You" enough to my parents. I don't watch/read certain things until they are okay with it, my internet is limited, I don't have FB, Pinterst, etc. and I've never had a boyfriend. And that's GOOD! I'm so grateful to have parents who care enough about me to protect me so much! I loved this post! Thanks!<br /><br />P.S. I'm glad your parents approved your friendship with me! ;)Bethany R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05109155620478749892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4757317209230743989.post-80640274936283454112016-08-07T16:03:30.057-07:002016-08-07T16:03:30.057-07:00No, the movie was not half as good, but I still re...No, the movie was not half as good, but I still really enjoyed it.

But I would have to ask. I'm not really sorry to miss watching it though, because I've heard from parents (and a few older siblings) that it's not as close to the book as we would want it, and there's a lot of added stuff to stretch the one book into three movies. It's kind of sad really. I loved the book so much, and the movie apparently hasn't done it justice. :(4rmeddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00261666077481922005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4757317209230743989.post-3479192856433449302016-08-03T19:34:24.687-07:002016-08-03T19:34:24.687-07:00Well done, Rebekah!

We are really protected in what we watch, too, and I just saw "Lord of the Rings" for the first time last fall! I appreciated all of the Biblical connections.thesmallestsmallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03236401550693844347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4757317209230743989.post-31129799888448031172016-08-03T13:01:31.026-07:002016-08-03T13:01:31.026-07:00As you should. :)

A lot of the things I think about people who say things negatively about my parents I never say out loud...which is good because I'd probably regret the words later. >_< <br />It's such a blessing to have friends who have the same, or close to the same, standards as you.

Yes, I can. And I know my parents love me and are looking out for me and I WANT to stay protected by them. And maybe, just maybe, I actually agree with my parents about this. It is possible, you know. *insert sarcasm* <br />Okay, I've never actually said that to anyone, but boy there are times I've felt like it! Thankfully, though, a lot of my friends come from families of similar backgrounds (Like you! :)) so those kind of conversations don't come up too often. ;)<br />Thank you so much for sharing, Rebekah! I enjoyed reading through this, and I agree with all of it. My parents may not have exactly the same standards as yours, but in many ways they are the same. And I love being protected. I agree, I wouldn't trade it for anything!!!
