Tolerance, Compromise, Anger Management

Tolerance, Compromise, Anger management...
all buzz words of our society... but I think they
should turn them into classes...

Maybe..just maybe we won't have children
shooting people at school...

Maybe...just maybe we won't have spousal
abuse...

Maybe...just maybe we won't have child abuse.

Maybe..just maybe we won't have road rage.

We seem to have a lot of that, even in the early
ages of our children. After all, see what they see...
angry adults...

There is an open door, open window of ideas
that maybe solved with classes in these 3 subjects.

We should start children at the level of second
grade. First with subtle hints thru out the class.
Then in fifth grade, working with more ideas and
examples.
Then in freshman high school, heavier classes.
Talking out problems the students see and feel.
Then a refresher course as a senior.

Who knows if we were to have this world wide,
maybe... just maybe we may not have wars. Just
discussions about differences. Tolerance,
Compromises, and less anger.

But then again, I have been accused of looking
at the world thru rose colored glasses.
