The Long View


Preserving Innocence. What is innocence?

From my perspective, the loss of it it complete when one realizes that the
world is not always good or fair and all of its dwellers are not benevolent.

I've heard people talk about protecting the innocence of children as though we are depriving them of much-needed knowledge. Is this true in every case? As parents and guardians isn't it our job to do everything in our power to protect their youth?

Do we have to allow various groups to plough up the soil of trust to have misinformation planted in the minds of the next generation?
Who is guarding their minds?
