So what really gets me is these chickenhawks, who sent our kids to die, without ever serving in a war themselves. They don't know what it's all about.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
A lot of child soldiers lose their minds.
I've come to admire our military kids more than you all will know, because you guys are heroes. And the only way your parents are able to serve is because you guys hold it down, and you do it with maturity beyond your years.
In 'Off to War, Voices of Soldier's Children,' kids from Canada and the United States talk about what it is like when their mother or father goes off to war - and comes home again.
I'm trying to raise the awareness of the troops that, when they deploy and go to war, it's not just them at war - it's also their family. Their family is having to go through all the hardships and the stresses.
People don't seem to understand that it's a damn war out there.
I can tell you this: If I'm ever in a position to call the shots, I'm not going to rush to send somebody else's kids into a war.
We say that we care about the war, but we don't even really know what we're fighting for.
It's one thing to say you're for the war; it's another thing to send your kid to war - your daughter or your son.
Of course you have to support the troops. They're just kids. They're doing for their country what's expected of them.
People just don't know what civilian prisoners of war are.
