Re: Indoctrination
I agree it seems really wrong, but where does indoctrination begin and end? If we are catholic or muslim then we indoctrinate our children to be the same. Do we support West Ham or Manchester United? bet your life your sons will support the same team. Think about the hatred that still exists in Northern Ireland, it is all down to the way that the children are indoctrinated to hate the same things, regardless of the reasoning. Luckily some of the indoctrinated will have the strength of mind to change paths later on, but really we are all guilty to an extent....Re: Indoctrination
Barry, this is a different kind of indoctrination, this is teaching them that it is right to be an anrchist and that the government is there to defy.Re: Indoctrination
I am sure Barry will be along soon, but here is my opinion in the meantime.Re: Indoctrination
Just to clarify my point, I abhor the way that children are used as cannon fodder in political struggles, but it really is a fine line that lays between education and indoctrination.Re: Indoctrination
Aerolor, I am not saying that Governments should not be challenged, I am saying what you say, children shoiuld not be used as a tool for gains in politics.Re: Indoctrination
Probably straying off topic a little here and not much interest to anyone but for what it is worth, I agree the use of children in those circumstances is to be deplored.Re: Indoctrination
I think it depends if you were at a church school, regarding reciting the scriptures and I also think there is no harm in this. There were rules you had to abide by and you knew where you were.A sort of safe feeling for a child, wether Catholic or Protestant.
