  • Any tips to keeping it light while not outright lying? Might be too early to say “supervillains may not exist but we have something similar, billionaires”

    We read a lot of kids books that touch on the subject: Swimmy, the Lorax, Yertle the Turtle, click clack moo, and just a lot of social justice and lgbtq+ books. They don’t have to understand marxism and you don’t have to bum them out either. Kids aren’t stupid, they can understand why we dislike people like Musk hoarding wealth.

    Aside from that we take the kids to [light] protests. We have them read the signs and try to plainly answer their questions.
