Hitler took great trouble to make sure that young people were loyal to him and the Nazi Party. He realized that in the future he may have to call on these people to put up with hardships, to fight and perhaps die for him. Therefore, it was important for young people to think that Hitler and the Nazis were the best thing that had ever happened to Germany.
Youngsters were indoctrinated (brainwashed) to think like the Nazis. Textbooks were rewritten to get across the Nazi message. Children were also taught to recognize Jews at a glance.

In 1891, he returned with Clara to Detroit, where he was hired as an engineer for the Edison Illuminating Company. Rising quickly through the ranks, he was promoted to chief engineer two years later. Around the same time, Clara gave birth to the couple’s only son, Edsel Bryant Ford. On call 24 hours a day for his job at Edison, Ford spent his irregular hours on his efforts to build a gasoline-powered horseless carriage, or automobile.
