Note that I said "how" to think, not "what" to think. If a person knows how to think, he or she is entirely capable of figuring out what to think on their own, no prompting necessary.
Too bad there are so many kids whose only interactions with adults occur at schools. Maybe there's Nuclear Family or two out there who discuss what was taught at school over dinner at the family table.
But, I bet everyone pretty much ignores everyone else after they get home.
I'm glad my kids were raised right. I'm sorry they haven't made me a grandpa. That said, I'm glad they're not rushing into bringing kids into a world like I see all around me today.
'Cause if they catch you in the back seat trying to pick her locks
They're gonna send you back to Mother in a cardboard box
You better run!
