We have a butcher shop not too far from us. They have 2 live pigs out front. Cute af. Kids love petting them.
They have no idea what happens at the slaughterhouse behind the shop.
Not sure if Iβll ever tell them.
In some ways itβs an accurate example of what life entails.
What's a good age, in your view, to tear down that wall and expose reality?
If they ask, Iβll explain. Otherwise discover on their own.
Better it comes from you than someone else.
Donβt think it matters
This is the gray area I ponder on. Should some life lessons come from experience? Should they be taught before living the experience?
Best to make sure your kids know where their food comes.
