RE: Keep Right On To The End Of THe Road

it's distant history for them ... knowing a relative was involved sometimes makes it more real.

I remember sitting with my niece as we watched Schindler's List and she asked me about some of the scenes. I explained them to her, about the hate that was so common then. After watching for a while she asked me if this was the war her grandpa fought in. Told her yes. She thought for a bit and then said, "Now I know why it had to be won".

She got the relevance. The behaviour in those scenes went against everything she had been taught about how to treat people.
