Connection: The video "Former Child Soldier Ishmael Beah Recounts his Past" is about children who are recruited into war by force. The video is similar to the article, "Teaching Kids to Kill" because the main theme is directed towards the amount of violence children see in social networking. Similarities between the video and article are that Ishmael and children now a days are being taught violence is okay. Ishmael Beah was physically taught how to use a gun but kid's who were not forced into war are learning from video games and television.
Concepts: Key concepts or idea I think are important and worth holding onto are child soldiers are forcefully recruited by adults who should know better. That a child should not have to part take in war.
Changes: Changes in action and thinking are that Ishmael Beah went to a rehabilitation centre. By being in a rehabilitation centre Ishmael Beah went through physical withdrawal like learning how to sleep again and facing traumas
