The impact and power children have on todays society often goes unnoticed by the adults. Children have the ability to think and have amazing "childish ideas" that need to be emphasized more
Adora starts her presentation by asking the audience "When was the last time you were called childish?". Whenever we make irrational demands, exhibit unruly behavior, etc. We are called childish. When really, age is not a definition of childish since adults exhibit a lot of the behaviors we call "childish". But who says that certain types of irrational thinking isn't what the world needs. We need to start listening to the voices of our youth, expect more from us, and also trust us.
I never thought of the word "childish" in this way until after this video. Us youth have so much to offer but our ideas are often looked down upon because it doesn't seem like they'd be of any good use. This world is so filled with direct line approaching and straight line thinking when really some "childish" thinking would be of good use in many aspects. This video explains the idea that even though we're young, it doesn't mean we don't think complex thoughts and that we don't have ideas to share and inspire people with. Besides, eventually we will be the new generation of adults.
Today's youth have so much to offer and society needs to start listening. "We are the leaders of tomorrow" and we are going to bring the world forward. If you're interested in listening to Adora's talk you should definitely watch the video
