That was the theme of a Children's Book I used to read to my 1st grade students for 15 years. I could not agree more with this. I hope my students understood the bigger picture. I tried to make the discussions meaningful and at their level of understanding and making personal connections.

People rarely learn from history or the mistakes we have made for thousands of years. Life is not fair and never will be. No wonder I am a misanthrope at this point in my life. The smartest decision I ever made was when I chose not to have children. I'd be ridden with guilt. People suck!
