There used to be a time in my country where parents had to teach their children from a very young age that some things said at home are never to be discussed with anyone outside the family under any circumstances, because they were politically incorrect and if someone learned that daddy was criticizing the Party over dinner, the whole family would be in serious trouble. Everyone had to watch their mouths, even little children. That ended 31 years ago. I guess now it's the US' turn to enjoy the same fun times.
The thing that really sucks for me is that after 1989, my country reoriented itself towards the West, and now that it's diseased, we'll have the same shit imposed on us again.
We had similar things in the 80s and 90s with cops coming into schools and asking if kids recognized certain types of drug paraphimalia. These 5 and 6 year olds would rat out their parents just by saying they had seen the object in question before.
I don't feel strongly on the issue, but its not like we haven't done similar things.

What country is that, Romania?
No, but it doesn't matter, it's always the same in every communist country.
Yup, they did this in Vietnam too. You even had kids reporting their parents on their own.
