the decade ... according to those who were born at its beginning

As the decade comes to an end, it is interesting to get a child's point of view.
My kids (9&7) ask me why I keep calling next year "twenty-ten" and not two thousand and ten.
It made me realize that throughout their lives it has always been two thousand and...

After watching the video below I asked my son the same questions...
He said the biggest news stories of the decade were that we bombed the moon and that Barack Obama got the Nobel Peace Prize.

He didn't know what a terrorist was. And his biggest fear is tarantulas.
