That's exactly the point ... I'm not not merely speaking about college age students, of which represent a tiny portion of the church population on the whole, but about the larger membership in general.

If parents and the home was consider the primary institution for distribution of truth and knowledge in the church then the role of seminary and BYU would be remarkably different.

As it stands now, those institutions far too often stand as a subsitute and not a companion to what is learned in the home.
