That isn't a bad thing. How many racists exist who simply mimicked their elders, never recognizing the error of their ways?

Should we encourage Catholic school kids to follow in the footsteps of priests who are perps? Or question whether what they did was wrong?

Should we encourage kids of felons to do as daddy did?Or question whether what they did was wrong?

We need kids to reflect on right and wrong, even in their own family.

We get it. We read you loud and clear. You close minded people of the older generation won't change. I didn't read what the Obamas' said but they were probably just being nice. I'm just waiting for the day all of you die out. Trust me, it will happen. Better start brainwashing your kids and hope they stay brainwashed when you're gone.

Maybe the first lady should worry about her husbands attrocious record of human rights violations before commenting on anyone else.

So she picked a 1950's topic, how is this appropriate/inspiring for today?

Oh, please.

She is simply advising kids to do what any responsible adult would advise them to do: stand up for what is right, and don't just do what is easy.
