Why do teens rebel?

According to Dr. Robert Epstein, as interviewed by the HSLDA, we train children to be rebellious by putting them into schools where they will be bored out of their minds, and more generally by refusing to treat them as the young adults that they are. Epstein notes in particular that his reading of the Scriptures (I don't know what faith, if any, he is) leads him to believe that the regime of limiting people by age, rather than by physical, spiritual, and emotional maturity, is not Biblically sustainable.

We might do well to consider not only where we put our children in school, but how we treat them at home, and what kind of children's programs our churches sponsor, if any.
