what other differences and similarities in experiences and reactions to violence that you can discern in the examined works?Children were
particularly impacted by the war through disruption to home life and to schooling,absent parents,and deaths of family and family friends. While
such experiences are common,children often struggle to understand the reasons behind these events,and the impact upon them was sustained in
different,and often more emotional,ways.In the pieces that you read, how do children interpret what is happening to them?Do they develop
attitudes to the“enemy”?Thinking about the young people“taking sides,”do they reflect on the relationship between the individuals and the
state,in their own nations and the“enemy”nations?How do states and nations factor in their considerations(through
patriotism,identity,education,support,oppression)?
