reply to Glenn final week

I think you have the right idea Glenn! It is time that we all take a stand and strive to change our society for a better future. We really can't bring up future children the same way that children decades ago were brought up because lets face it, the world is alot different now than it usd to be. I do not have any children yet, but I know that when I do I am going to bring my children up to be open minded and tolerant of others. I cannot stand when people are judgemental of others or racist, and yet they really cant tell you why. All they know is that thats the way it is in their family so they feel like its some type of obligation to have the same viewpoints as their family. It is time that this type of nonsense comes to an end. Instead of trying to shelter children from all types of differences in the world, we should start educating them at a young age so that they can make their own informed decicions instead of being dictated how they should react to certain things. Children are eventually going to see it all, so we might as well teach them the right way to be accepting than to try to hide them from the differences. I hope that many others have the same viewpoint as you do because that is the type of people that we need in order to change the world for the better.
