We don't watch news at home, like the old days when our generation grew up. DH and I got news update on our devices. So there's the absence of neutral exposure froma 3rd party.
We all know the world has descended into more or less a chaos (if not a shit show across the globe). Sentiments are high and toxic figures are everywhere. The world looks gloomy for the coming years.
We haven't talked about politics to DC13 at all. He doesn't have the inclined curiosity to ask.
I'm very much on the fence if we shall start making him aware. But I fear our cynicism and pessimistic views will do no good. What we believe may well be biased and not holistic. But he's at that age he should know something about the real world out there. His friends would chat about Trump and he usually just remains silent as he doesn't have any opinions, because he's not made aware...
What do you guys think and suggest?
