[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 651728, member: 1550"] Yes, it was for you, Lucy. It IS interesting at the difference in cultures. The Occupy movement only lasted a while here and was more about kids getting free meals and drugs than really caring enough about anything to change it. In the U.S., the kids rarely vote. None of my kids ever have, which is alarming to me because I care so passionately about social issues and feel so strongly about voting and at least keeping up with the news. But most kids don't really know or care about the world or social issues, except for those who are the opposite of your son...those who don't believe there is global warming, those who believe a fetus is a person, etc. The Tea Party is huge. Nothing comes close. The kids live in their own worlds and their drug habits are usually to fit in socially and for no other reason except for the common, "My life socks." Me, me, me. [/QUOTE]
