Hello /r/askhistorians. First off I apologize if I am posting this question in the wrong sub. I took the time to read the sub rules and my question seems to fall in a bit of a grey area. So again, I apologize if this isn't the place and wont be offended if my question is removed.

I have read repeatedly all over Reddit that we live in the most peaceful time in the history of the world. I do not disagree with this and am quite happy to agree.

Being the father of a six year old who prides himself on teaching his son in the ways of the world, it made me ask myself: What sort of things would a guy who lived during the time of GK who wanted to raise his son correctly be passing along to his son?

I mean, I try to teach my son to respect the law, have respect for human life, throw a baseball, kick a soccer ball, math, reading, writing etc.

The lessons parents taught their kids during the time of GK must have been morally and philosophically different. I have a college degree and studied history so I'm not a complete idiot but I don't think exact ideological differences in daily life were ever touched upon in detail.

What moral and secular life lessons would have been different from a father to a son back in that time when you never knew who was going to run through your village or town at any given moment and burn everything to the ground?

Again, I apologize if this is the wrong sub but I hope someone can give me some interesting feedback. Thanks again.
