RECLAIMING CHILDHOOD |
|
I couldn't agree more with Are we breeding
the Lolita generation? (August SHE). Working
with children, I often find myself thinking
that their young minds have been deprived
of innocence, and usually a good deal of
fun and happiness along with it. Forcing
children to acknowledge sexuality at an
early age and face up to adult problems is
not going to raise a generation of responsible
adults - it is far more likely to breed
a generation of confused and unhappy
children. Let's give our children a chance
to enjoy their childhood. We spend half
our time trying to escape the worries of
adulthood, so it doesn't make sense to rush
children into it.
