I think it's excellent kids are getting more politically aware. After all politics today will decide their future tomorrow. They have the most to gain or lose.
Besides, people tend to be more open to new ideas when young and have less patience with bs. Pity this awakening didn't come early enough for the Brexit vote. Instead, OAPs decided on something they won't be around for to "enjoy".
