[quote=Anonymous]You should have told her yourself. She is well past old enough. Quit sheltering children from life. I had this conversation last week with a leading mental health consultant. We were chatting about an upcoming presentation, and I mentioned that another mom had clearly thought I was a bad parent because my young kids know about 9/11, the Holocaust, WW2, etc. She said that it is absolutely bad for children not to learn about these things early on, in an age-appropriate way. And that doing so feeds things like Holocaust denial. Sheltering them from history causes them to lack resilience down the road, and that is a trait best built from early ages. [/quote]
