This has come up for the first time but frequently in the last 6 months with my kids. I try to answer them honeslty when they question what I did but sometimes I differ them to “when they are older.” Because I know that they won’t understand the implications of my decisions and will glorify what I’ve told them. So I tell them as much as they can understand and promise to give them a full answer when they will understand. They usually accept that.
" I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent." Mahatma Gandhi
"This is the ultimate weakness of violence: It multiplies evil and violence in the universe. It doesn't solve any problems." Martin Luther King, Jr.
