In this episode of Perspectives Into Practice, my college friend Emily shares how a game called 99 Nights in the Forest, which her son found through Roblox, turned out to contain dark, occult-style imagery. She had been diligent with safeguards, and she noticed a soft Holy Spirit warning early on. After nightmares and unsettling moments, she listened to that alarm, watched the game herself, and saw what was really there. Guilt showed up first, but grace met her, and she turned something hard into a real conversation with her kids. In this conversation: - Why paying attention to the Holy Spirit's small warnings matters - How to give yourself grace as a parent and then do the work of protecting and teaching - How to talk with your kids about what they see online and build their discernment If this conversation encouraged you, share it with a friend who needs it, or reach out at [https://perspectivesintopractice.com/contact](https://perspectivesintopractice.com/contact).
