Lowering the Bar: Kindergarten Recruitment
Jon Letman, Truthout: "How old is old enough for students to be approached by military recruiters? High school? Junior high? Fourth grade? How about ten weeks into kindergarten? Last week at the dinner table, my five-year-old son announced blithely, 'Soldiers came to school today.' He then added, 'They only kill bad people. They don't kill good people.'"

Beginning With the Children: To Teach Peace
Eleanor J. Bader, On the Issues Magazine: "It is the third week of classes at P.S. 130, The Parkside School in Brooklyn, New York. A group of fourth graders sits on the floor, watching five others - a mix of nine- and 10-year-olds from other classes in the school - take seats in front of the room."
