What does respect for human values mean to you?
Human values are the positive virtues and opposing negative vices that guide us to take action. We use these moral behaviors to justify how we think about ourselves and how to interact with others. Now let’s try to understand the issue of human values from a child’s perspective. Click on the following video link below.

Let us take another look at a father and son making conversation with different point of views about this human rights issue. How might this dialogue impact who you vote for in the next Presidential election?
“Hi son, how was your day at school?”
“ Ok. Hey dad, but I heard in my Current Events class that the rich man you are always talking about got convicted yesterday of a serious crime?”
“Now son, nobody’s perfect. Don’t mind the news on this matter.“
“Sure dad! But they said he cheated on his wife when she was pregnant. Why did he lie that it never happened?”
“Son, that’s his business not ours.”
“But dad, our school just banned a library book that a lot of kids were reading that explained that Thomas Jefferson had sex with one of his slaves. Shouldn’t our next President care about doing such things?”
“Son, he says he wants to “Make America Great Again. You should know that! Go tidy up for dinner.”
“Ok dad. Do you know when mom will get back? I really miss her.”
“We will be fine son. She’s just taking a short vacation from us for awhile to enjoy her freedom. And so am I.

Well said, USFMAN. I wonder how many parents around the nation have had just that conversation with their young, impressionable children?

Howdy Usfman!
Those are my thoughts exactly. When we are public figures, we have increased responsibilities for setting examples. The higher you are, the more eyes are on you, the more of an example you’ve set. Trump’s example of morality is a chief reason we’ve had such a steep decline in public moral behavior. We are ruder and more openly racist, misogynist, and xenophobic.
And, as you point out, Republicans are trying to change the curriculum to exclude moral standards other than the straightjacket that the white Christian nationalists want us to wear.
Unfortunately, few people outside those of us who are real news hounds and political junkies really know what his charges and trials are about. Conservative states and areas are actively trying to suppress any criticism of Trump and white nationalism.
It all makes it so much more imperative that we get out the vote in November and vote straight Democrat no matter what.
Huzzah!
