A while ago I was talking about philosophy with some of my students (I teach middle school). I was talking to them about how sometimes reality can be ambiguous. Like how do I know that what I experience as reality is what everyone else experiences? I brought up the topic for fun to see what my students thought, and later one of my class aides asked me about it. She basically told me, she thought I needed to see a counselor. And I told her, I was only discussing philosophy with the kids - but then it struck me later that maybe she has never read any philosophy.

Was it wrong for me to discuss philosophy with my students? I was really surprised when she thought what I was saying sounded odd, as its what was discussed in a lot of my college classes (I was a Poly Sci major, and I took many Political Theory courses).
