Here's a question for you all. How do you explain to your 23 child who hasn't lived through an era of major war and is scared and distressed by what she is seeing and can't process the cruelty of war. Our children unfortunately had pathetic schooling about history and WW1 & WWII and don't understand the seriousness of what is unfolding before us. But thanks Education NZ they can say Kia Ora.
Tell her to turn tv and social media off and you wouldn’t know. When covid restrictions broke out I was surprised the step daughter knew nothing about east Germany and boy is she a super bright nerd type that loves to study. But that’s the book burning you get when leftists infiltrate all depths of education system and “adjust” the syllabus...
Even my generation wasn’t taught the full horrors of communism. We got taught about WW2 etc but likes of pol pot were mentioned but glossed over a bit I guess.
