The history of Thanksgiving is fraught with different perspectives, revisionist history, and cultural myths. I urge all parents to teach their children the real history of this holiday and the right and wrong steps that were taken.
I also urge parents to find fun ways to celebrate the messages that should be celebrated: working together and overcoming obstacles.
