    The real observation should be - What a peaceful world we would have if we did not pass on our prejudices to our children! I find more wee ones appreciate the kilt without being told.

    As someone who deals with actual children on a regular basis, I have to respectfully disagree. Children are wild animals, and raising them is the process of taming those animals to behave in a civilized fashion.
