Hi Bourgo,
Very good topic... I have three teenage children. The rise of the witness can create an initial (temporary) sense of detachment, but I have found a deepening of my relationship with my children. With the increasing sense of peace, it is easier to be patient and not get caught up in the drama that can cause lots of irritation with the kids. Overall, it is all positive.
With education, I have tried to teach my children to be open (while based in a Christian framework). Even beyond "stumbling across", they have started there exploration on their own. Two of my children can already actively "feel the energy".
As the AYP lesson describes, with formalized practices, I would wait until the children are older.
