Do u remember 9/11

[Inseriousity.]

a change in atmosphere with 8-9 year olds? The innocence of childhood when you didn't know everything about what an evil place the world could be, I miss those days.

i meant adults, obviously you're going to be around adults at age 8-9
specifically your parents

I was blissfully ignorant until I saw the picture on the front page of the newspaper the next day (before school, I'd go to my granddads and read the paper til it was time to go). Even then, life continued same as usual really and the adults didn't give any indication that they'd changed either.

I was realllllyyyy young so I don't remember anything.

My mum says that we were driving back from my nannas and it was all over the radio on the way back.

I didn't get told in school, I remember coming home and all the family were watching it on TV and being annoyed that cartoons weren't on.
