My damn school kept it from us. They made it a half day and I didn't find out until I got home what was going on. I entered the front door and my brain skipped a track as the TV was playing on repeat and I found out what happened.

Yeah. My mom did a similar thing except she was better at it. I was eight at the time, and my mom was on a homeschool craze at the time, so she was able to keep me and my brother from finding out for an entire year and I asked what happened on September 11th. To this day I don’t know how to feel about it. I get I was young, and she was just trying to protect me, but there’s some things that shouldn’t be kept like that.
