Education not execution

We must make the very clear distinction between educating and executing our children. This is not to say they we literally line our children up in front of foreign squads, but when education is ineffective and does not touch the soul, then we doom them to a slow death that will be felt for generations. Therefore, we must teach compassion and caring. We must teach that they are integral in this vast, complicated world and they have value. Their decisions have value. Their voices have value. Their lives and the lives of those whom they care for deeply have value. We must also teach them that the lives of those whom they have never met, nor will ever meet have value. Without this, we slowly destroy generation after generation. This is how we execute our children so slowly that they do not even feel the presence of death as it walks alongside them day in and day out.
