Walking down East Market Street today, I overheard a conversation between what appeared to be a father and son. As they passed Martin Library, the adult explained to the child, who was about 6 years old, that the library would no longer be open on Sundays because of the state budget impasse.
"I heard it on the news," he said. "Isn't that something?"
Both seemed legitimately concerned. Without getting into the complex details of the stalemate, an adult conveyed to a child how government affects our lives and our communities. Whether it was intended, I found the conversation to be a good teaching tool and hope I eavesdrop on more like it.
