We need to stop wrapping kids up in cotton wool.
As for being open minded; open mindedness empowers us as individuals. I mean, my belief system dictates how people interact with me and how I interact with others but if I’m not prepared to change my mind about my beliefs, even when there’s sufficient evidence to do so, I should be asking myself, what am I afraid of? Why am I limiting myself?

Have you watched the video on Dr Jordan Peterson's views on Islamophobia. Like many he does not have a high regard for the word or for the motives of those that use it.
