Tony Snow on Fox saying kids in the area have had their childhoods stolen from them with terrorists flying planes into buildings and now the shootings. Will they think this is how it will always be? (his thought).
yes. people are terrorized is what I am hearing.
That's BS, victimology. Every generation of kids has some rotten stuff it has to deal with. The 30's Great Depression, the 40's WWII, the 50's Atomic Bomb duck and cover, the race riots and social rebellions in the 60's and 70's, the drugs and day-care of the 80's and 90's. Which of 'em was the worst?
Tony Snow is just saying, now is more important than then, we have it so much harder. Wawawawa, what bunkum!
Overall, the kids today have it great, better than ever!
All this reminds of growing during in the cold war. Many times I would hear a plane flying by and wonder if it was a bomb falling.
My kids (8, 11) are concerned and curious but all secure that the adults they deal with are keeping them safe.
Talked to a few teachers today. They think the kids are doing fine and doing much better than the adults.
Tony is being melodramtic.
