Power of Children

When a child grows up, what voice do they have? With the learning, studying, and listening to their teachers and going home to do more homework as well as the many assignments their parents had given them, students have no breaks. They are expected to do the many necessary roles they are assigned to with no complaint. But what if things were different? What if children were able to project to their parents that they were the ones that needed to have a voice? If students were challenged to make a difference instead of study for the test. If students and teachers worked together to not only teach the lesson, but implement it into children’s lives- school would matter. Children have an important voice, but are hidden by the many adults that take over control. If children had a minute to express their opinions, what could happen?
