Hi Selma:
You are just about saying the same thing that Mario is trying to explain;
except that you attempt to contend that the glass is half-empty rather
than half-full.
Dwelling on, and embracing the positive/s will not hurt anyone, but the
opposite (negative/s) invariably will.
By telling your child
dads bad or moms bad...will inculcate ample
negativity in your child, but explaining (and demonstrating) that theres a
lot of goodness in dad/mom, despite his/her weaknesses
your child is more
likely on dwell on the good side versus the ill side of it. The same
applies to your subject discussion.
Wish you a fine day!
Joe Vaz

The cultural mores of a society are determined by its
language, religion, food, art, values and all the
other components that together weave the fabric of
commonality. It is facile to think that religion is
separate from culture or that it is incapable of
negatively influencing society.

In a secular democracy Abrahamic religions are no
better than the Hindu culture of our ancestors nor
the
Muslim cultural practices that evolved in the Middle
East. All religious and non-religious beliefs are
equally good or bad.
Cheers,
