(I am pretty stridently of the opinion that children are for protecting. That we can't protect all children, or can do our best but still fail, is not in my view an argument against protecting the ones that we can; so yes, I think that at some point they should as Good Citizens be aware of where their food comes from and so on, but I don't think that telling them things that will upset them while they are entirely powerless to do anything about those things is necessarily the right answer? And I don't think you do either, to be clear, but that's where I am on that particular flavour of balancing act at the moment.)
