Thanks for the ping. It's terrible what it is necessary to teach children. These lessons have always been necessary, but unfortunately rarely taught until things are out of control.

RIGHT YOU ARE ABOUT THAT.

We want to protect children from the rough catastrophes and hazards of life.

So we withhold stories, truths, realities.

Then they suffer more because they are less prepared.

Not wisdom.

Thanks for your kind reply.
