“For him to be able to see what happens in the world and be able to see different cultures and people and happenings — I think it opens your mind wide up.”

“I think as a compassionate person, which I really want to teach him to be, you naturally want to lend and be a part of change. I know that naturally he’ll find the thing that he’s passionate about and wants to change.”

Good job Alicia.
Unfortunately, not many think like you.
Moreover, Egypt will soon learn he does not live in a compassionate world.
. . . .and that 'compassion' would be used judiciously and not accorded to every riff-raff around him.
Unlike Jesus, justice should be tempered with impunity not with mercy to thine h-enemies!
Do your best and leave the rest.
