We actually spent a pretty good amount of time in a high school history class discussing whether or not the bombings were justified.

Though the first experience in school with the bombings was from reading "Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes" in like 3rd grade.
I remember reading that in I think 7th grade believe it or not for class. Very sad.

I remember learning it was a tragic but necessary part of the war. Even if it wasn't, maybe it was a necessary part for human life. Nuclear weapons are perhaps the scariest thing to think about honestly since they've only gotten more powerful since then and unlike other apocalyptic events, feel very possible.
