There’s a difference between sheltering them from reality and exposing them to situations when they are ready. Just because terrorism exists doesn’t mean preschoolers should be shown videos of beheading’s on the internet. Obviously a child can see a homeless person almost anywhere in the city, I just don’t agree that it is better to go out of your way to unnecessarily expose your children to these issues before they are capable of mentally and emotionally processing your explanation of what is going on. Especially when your explanation of how people end up homeless is to blame their choices. Every parent has their own opinions on how to raise their children, this is an approach I simply wouldn’t take.
