RE: THE PROBLEM WITH RIGHT AND WRONG
Deeply flawed argument. You assume they won't learn the wrong lessons, and that all people are good. Bad assumption. Morality and right and wrong are definitely important to know and to teach. These lessons will be learned, and if not from moral guidance, they will come from immoral reality.
Immoral or amoral? I don't know what your experiences are, but I've found reality to be either punishing of immoral behavior, or complacent. As an adult it's not very often I run into a huge moral dilemma. I know just as well from experience as I do from being taught that hurting others typically results in me being hurt in return.
That's expected, because of the lack of morality pervasive in current culture. Stay strong, and don't drop to their level.
Drop to who's level exactly? I don't know what your morals are. I have morals, but they may not match up with yours. What is the lack or morality you're speaking of?
This comment is incorrect and polarized. Children can learn without dichotomy referencing.
Sorry, I disagree. Based on my experience, I don't believe that to be true in all cases.
