My kids asked me what hippies were. I just told them "People that love nature and like to use natural things instead of manmade and love being peaceful."
I give my kids informatioon on a 'need to know basis' and I figured that is all they needed to know right now. but, that is easy for me to decide with my students, being homeschoolers. So my teaching and school examples don;t always work well with larger scale schooling.

with my students; simply to avoid any controversy. In general, I have
found that our community, while very tolerant of alternate lifestyles,
prefers the "don't discuss in our schools" attitude
