Children are so clueless and innocent.
- dylan604 6y agoI don't think clueless is the right word. Innocent, sure, but they just haven't learned how to value things within a more realistic manner.
- smnrchrds 6y agoI was referring to the fact that they are not bothered by eating ham, bacon, etc. They are clueless about what happens to pigs in the real world, and how many have perished to provide their sustenance.
- dylan604 6y agoThat brings up an interesting perspecitve. How would answers to this question break down by urban vs rural demgraphics. Kids that raise animals for something like FFA or even directly on a farm as well as kids that are around this type of environment are much more aware that they are raising food. Does that skew their answers compared to kids in the city that may not ever even see a cow/pig in real life?
- leafmeal 6y agoPerhaps children in our culture are "clueless" because usually they grow up far removed from the animals they eat. I wonder if children who grow up with farm animals, or in a culture dependent on hunting would feel differently.
