I don't think it's about "political innocence" at all. There is an age appropriate way to talk to kids about serious issues--that's more than fine; kids understand more than we know. And I think making a video with your kid is a great project. But maybe not in this iteration--these are not her own thoughts or words. There's no concern there, or really any indication that she's affected by it all. She's acting in a play--it might as well be Rapunzel to her.
