"Children are so resilient ... " (mrshb70)

mrshb70 made this comment on yesterday's blip and added "... and learn so quickly". That thought popped back into my mind as we watched these two boys in the town square this evening. One was teaching the other to ride a two wheeler - not a care in the world, enjoying the challenge of learning new skills, helping each other. How is it that in a mere 15 years or so, boys like these can be only too eager to go to war, take up a weapon and blast each other out of existence?
