Answer 1

I am 42 years old so I was born in 1965 and live in the UK. I lived through a large part of the Cold War period. From the age of 9 when I realised the Soviet threat was real I expected to die young. I bought our civil defence booklet out of paper round money to learn how to try and survive. Later I was in the Police and in the mid-1980s I attended a War Duties course to learn what our role would be during and after a nuclear conflict. As a boy I didn't let my schooling go a drift as I believed there maybe a future. I now have my own family and home and I am still here. My parents survived the 2nd world war and my grandparents survived the 1st world war. My father fought in the 2nd and both grandfathers in the 1st. Why should you give up? Don't put your hands up in defeat, do the degree if that is what you want.

Answer 2

I totally agree with David C.
I am 52 years old and I can relate to everything that he said.
Things never really change, but as individuals, we owe it to ourselves, our family's and the rest of human kind to do the best that we can.
It is this action of doing the best we can that, in my mind, keeps the events that you describe from escalating.
