Give Children Their Voice
Respect doesn’t come easily to youth’s life experience in progress. We put them in their place…
Shut up, youngin’.
What do they know, right?
Shaming leads to silence. It leads to rage. Don’t do that.
A well thought out opinion deserves an audience, even if only one is there to receive it.
Contributions of spoken information are the right of any individual, young or old.
Let’s hear it all.
Encouraging communication honors the conviction of the orator. Let them learn, respect their effort. Challenge the thought process, if it requires it, but let them speak.
Embrace their courage, honor their thoughts. Let them talk.
Their experience, their journeys will shape future discussions, better lives possibly.
All humans feel valuable to others and especially themselves when they are accepted.
Respect their language and their self-expression.
Let them become adults who are heard.
