I'll probably get a blast from some, but . . . .

Children need to learn the ground rules of their society. These are the things which

are expected of them by the moderate mainstream of their community.

They need to know where the boundaries are so they can run back within these

boundaries if crossing the line turns bad.

They need to know the limits the far right want to impose, so they can understand

the threat posed by these people.

They need to know the limits the anarchic left want followed, so the child can understand

the futility of utopian dreams.

Understanding is the key.
