Yes, the lessons of the past are readily and easily forgotten.
You remember, your grandkids might remember, but what about their grandkids? If they remember it will probably be thought of as a historical relic not applicable to their modern times. Forgetting something like the holocaust won't happen overnight because of something like this. Dropping the holocaust as a part of the curriculum is just one step towards the inevitable.
