Title: Strange little book....
Review: Carl Sommers claims that the cure for the deplorable moral decay of kids today is to teach them NOT to make their own moral judgements, NOT to question their own cultural values, and NOT to be tolerant of differing cultures/value systems. He claims that teaching kids 'too much' tolerance is teaching them not to condemn such evils as slavery. And yet he does not explain how slavery could have been eliminated from our own culture without people who questioned their own cultural values. Questioning cultural values is how we improve society. Without questioning, we stagnate as people and as a culture.I can't say that brainwashing kids to believe exactly as they are told can be seen as building character--quite the opposite.
