Stepping Out of My Classroom (Or ?Not Saying the F-Word?)

"I was trying to sort through what I can tell the kids at our school, what quotes I can use, what they need to be shielded from, and why we need to shield them from stories about the war, when those children and our children are the same age. I found out that our teachers were getting in trouble at the start of the war for letting kids see pictures of things like the Abu Ghraib abuses'they were told they weren't allowed to show those images to their classes or refer them to those sorts of websites. I can understand that, you know. I don't think kids should be exposed to that either but that includes the kids in Iraq, so I?m at a loss at the double standard."
