[quote=Anonymous]It's a super interesting time to talk about separation of powers, and how our founders approached these things. Why we have militias. Why we have the 2nd amendment. We also talk about whether it's right for the US to try to influence actions in other places, especially when human rights are in focus. Is it our right to take our values and impose them elsewhere? A moral imperative? We also talk about whether it's right/fair to apply today's standards and values to historical figures (this one seems to come up whenever they notice a rec center getting renamed in Virginia). I think it's important to discuss these things! My husband and I often have opposing views, but really try to let our children lead the discussion (they are 15, 13, and 10).[/quote]
