I sat my kid down when she said "I hate Donald Trump". (8 year old, her mom my ex is a total liberal). Instead of telling her what to think I showed her bidens gaff ridden speeches, a highlight reel of him sniffing little kids. Then I showed her the highlights of Trump speeches and she changed her mind. Kids are smart and have great bullshit detectors.

I told her the most important thing I can teach her is to never let someone influence how you think. Never trust the media and to even question if what you learn in school is the truth. Most things in life are a lie. Seek out knowledge everywhere you can and try to figure things out for yourself. That was almost a year ago and before I give my opinion on things I ask her what she thinks now. She thinks Covid makes no sense. She thinks politicians are evil. I dont think she understands the gravity of what the world is going through but I am really happy that she has started to break away from the heard. She loves Trump and now her mom hates me even more 😂
