How come we hide the truth?

Question

How come we hide the truth about stuff such as homosexuality,or the struggles other countries have , other things they should know
in most little kids worlds they get everything they want .They scream till their parents spoil them .I know we shouldn't teach them stuff like sex but shouldn't we teach about stuff like
they should know about stuff like that rather than getting everything they want and having their every wish granted
Alot of kids they take their privileges for granted
Then they aren't use to people like gay people ,and they have no clue about so many things like how (if they are preps ) the clothes they advertise ( when they wear it ) are made in sweatshops by poor little asian kids
I'm not saying that every parent does this to their child but why should we hide the truth ?

Answer 1

Children learn by example mostly. So, why show them what we don't want them to be. The problem is that children learn by example and make choices about what they learn. Some embrace, some don't, some tolerate it, some don't. The easiest way is to not show them or hide the truth.

Plus they forgot to issue the owners's manual for children. So, people are left on their own to show their children the way. And when you have poor information or incomplete information or alcohol/drug induced information or... You can get poorly raised children.

Now, if the parent has NEVER discussed the subjects even with their spouse. We have another problem. Lack of communication skills on the topic. Why do you think the parents rely on the schools to teach the children? Lack of time, skills, etc.

Now if you are lucky, the children find out on their own and make their own choices. Hahahaha

Having grown up in East Los Angeles area, not exposed to homosexuality, having asian parents who have a tough time showing affection let alone talk about sex. I have my baggage and understand it. I have had gay friends in the past and found them to have the same problems straight people do, relationships, jobs, parents, etc. They just have a sexual preference. Oh well!!! When I travel, I make sure I see the worse the country or city has to offer. First to make sure where it is and second to actually see how bad it really is. TV can tell all, but, are they really showing us the worse or the truth.

Why hide the truth? Many reasons including insecurity, lack of knowlege, lack of communication skills, lack of time, lack of interest, lack of....

Good question
