    Some of it has to do genetics. However setting a good example and teaching a child from infancy right from wrong is very important. It's especially important to set the right example.  Kids are very intuitive and will see right through the hypocrisy. (Deuteronomy 6:4-9)

    I think that is every parent's obligation. Sadly some kids are born into families where hate is served daily and so what chance do they have? Those parents believe they are doing right by their children. Setting them straight. Telling them "how it is". What they do is turn their children into replicas of them and that's why there will always be racists and bigots. I guess. Sad isn't it? Thank you for your reply Autumn and Happy Friday!  :)

    Hmmm.  When we daily serve up hate and vitriol on an internet chat or Q & A site do we think we are "setting people straight", telling people "how it is", and turning others into replicas of ourselves?
