I bought Sarah a few Chinese DVD's when I was in China. So far she seemed a little too insecure to watch these DVD'S. Today however, she saw them on her shelf, and wanted to look at one. They are very well made with adorable Chinese children in traditional costumes singing Chinese songs. I would never have thought anything about these songs. Nicole on the other hand has studied Chinese for 1 1/2 years. She pointed out that all these songs were about Communism. The children were singing the praises of the state, and how wonderful it was to be a soldier for Communism. Even Sarah has been taught already to march! Did you realize China is rising up an army?
