Not Liking Modern World History


I was revising my grand master plan and realized something interesting.   I really dislike studying modern world  history.  I noticed that I did not schedule to teach this to either of my girls.  My son and I are struggling through it.  It has been painful.  I know that war and genocide are not unique to the twentieth century.   Maybe it seems more personal to me than older history since I know people that were alive when these things happened.  I have pictures of family members that were witness to these events.  I was witness to some of these events.  I have heard first-hand personal accounts of these wars.  I have seen scars from these wars.
