    I'm surprised and fascinated with how many children I've heard are really upset about the results, children as young as 6-7 years old are waking up and freaking out. The next generation won't forget this.

    • I hate kids that age pretending they are about politics. Just repeating their parents. Bugs me as much as kids getting a coffee at starbucks. Little shits.rosem
    • they care*rosem
    • It's not so much the politics they're reacting to. It's that Trump embodies a lot of the characteristics that they were told aren't those of a respected adult.monospaced
    • I wasn't trolling when I asked for Cygnus btwernexbcn
    • you know he's upset, and you want him to express it ... that's what you were doing when you asked, no?monospaced
    • why the downvotes? am I not allowed to be fascinated and surprised by this?monospaced
    • rosem. do you have children?kona
    • I hope not.monospaced
    • of course he/she doesn't. The reason I ask is because you have a fundamental misunderstanding of at what age a child can think on their own.kona
    • My 7 year old formed an opinion of Trump long before I told him mine. Same with my 3 year old. BOTH of them knew him to be a bad man before I said a single wordkona
    • @kona, that's what fascinates memonospaced
    • My kids too...8 & 6. Mainly seeing the political commercials where he's insulting disabled people and putting down others.aslip
    • I think that was the one that got my son too. The look on his face was of complete disgust.kona
    • My kids are 16 and 13. They've been told to respect other people's viewpoints at home and at school for all of those years, and they knew he was a conman theallthethings
    • first they saw him. "He said that???!" was a common reaction. I was touched last night, actually, when my 13-yr-old daughter put her hand on my shoulder to tellallthethings
    • me she was sorry. I told her with the Supreme Court she's gonna be dealing with this shit for the next 40 years, and I'll be dead by then.allthethings
    • I told her I was sorry for her. She shouldn't be sorry for me. My fucking generation did this. Again.allthethings
