Children


Emmanuel Ringleblum was a chronicler of the doomed Warsaw Ghetto.  In one entry he told of a child who tried to collect an extra lunch at a public “soup” kitchen.  “When discovered, the child begged with tears in his eyes to be allowed to have two lunches, because he did not want to die like his little sister.”

Can anyone say the words “not on my watch” without cringing?

Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
