My current prediction is sometime between 10 and 16; I think the most obvious trigger will be something like “showing distress over world events” like a war or famine abroad, or possibly bad riots in the US.
I’m going to push for it before college at least, because having this kind of perception will save so much time when learning anything adjacent to history or politics.
Personally, I’d shoot for 15, judging by the teenagers and children I’m familiar with. But it depends on the kid.
If I had infinite time (which we don’t have) I’d start with King Rat by James Cavell before This War of Mine. King Rat is a novel about life in a prisoner of war camp.
