We Must Teach Future Generations To Move On Instead Of Hating Others

A mother and father are glaring at their son angrily. It is a still from the film: Taare Zameen Par.

A story takes place in Germany. A mother and the school teaches them that just like mushrooms are good and bad, there are also good and bad people, and that is true but then the mother asked for an example of bad people.

You would obviously think of some bad people who did some bad things, example murder or a person who commit a dangerous crime, but the kid proudly answered that it was the Jewish, my reaction was confused.

The thing that made me angry and irritated that the mother was agreeing to it, I was like we are in the twenty first century for god sake, if the Germans were angry and Jewish people because of a war and hating their religion, I mean should Indians also be hating British? Shouldn’t we?

But we didn’t, we don’t, ’cause people change and also we are civilized and past is past also we should the future generations to be united for a greater cause in the future not to be stuck in the past.

If the next generation learn these kind of things, no matter how much educated they are they should move with the time and also I wont say World War II didn’t cause damage, it did a lot but recovering from the damage and moving on is what that matters not hating someone or their religion will do us any good.

I would like to come to the conclusion that we cannot rewrite the past but we can write the present and the future, the world is in our hands.
