My eighth grade history/social studies teacher was wonderful and discussed several topics that were not in the curriculum, including Aristotle and the golden mean. My friends and I were interested and thus researched it some more at home, and it became an inside joke of sorts, where we would make references to the golden mean whenever we said something.
Politics were also discussed in eighth grade history, but when I was in elementary school, I loved to read (still do). I received a book about presidents from a teacher and I wanted to learn more about the political parties, so I researched them. At first, I thought I agreed with the Republican Party, but as years have gone by and I have done more research and reading, I have become exceedingly left-wing and more certain with atheism.
And that is my experience with politics thus far.
