The thread on teaching a 7yo about the holocaust reminded me that I need to do some research on this.
My DD will be 9yo this year, I also have a 6yo DS.
We are at present in French speaking part of Switzerland.
At some point in the coming years, they are going to be taught about the holocaust, and Germany's past.
Until now they have been proud of their German heritage (DH is German) and I don't want them to feel ashamed of being half-German.
Any ideas how to introduce this gently? And should I speak to the teacher about when they start teaching WW2 here?
