Great story, those little kids certainly knew their stuff.

It is really impressive when small kids from other countries know things better than some kids or even adults from our places. But I guess they might be having some night schools or something like that were they get these informations from.

This is a great story and I like the picture too.

I’ve done that kind of thing before too in India – it’s easy to get into a knee-jerk “just say no” mindset.

Know the feeling. Brought back memories of traveling in South America, and getting off the train to a lot of kids selling crafts, and feeling so overwhelmed, I wanted to help them all. I was young then, but I think now I would handle it differently.

Fascinating! I’m always surprised at how little some people know about their own country or its immediate neighbors…let along knowing anything about countries many miles away from them.
Reminds me of a time I was in a club in Ottawa. Some folks at the table next to us asked where we were from, and when we answered “Detroit”, one of the women piped up to ask “Is that near Boston?”
I can’t say folks here in the US are any better in many cases, though.
