What issues have you changed your opinion on and why?

It really could be anything that you felt strongly about, and then after learning more decided your original opinion was wrong. I’d like to know specifically what changed your mind. Was it a single event or conversation, or a change you made over time.

One for me is homeschooling. I used to think it was a bad idea and that only religious people who want to shelter their children do it. In my mid twenties a friend of mine was considering it for her children. Her husband was pushing for it, and his family is born again, and I didn’t like the idea with the stereotypes in my head. Then the topic came up somehow when I was talking to my sister and she completely changed my mind about homeschooling in general.
