Adults have to learn from kids

Posted on August 21, 2010 by Axel dans Family life

Adora Svitak is young American girl who writes short stories and blogs since age of 7. She is now 12 years and explains with a disconcerting ease and confidence that the world needs “childish” thinking: bold ideas, wild creativity and above all, optimism. The big dreams of children deserve high expectations, she said, starting with the grownups’ willingness to learn from children as as much as to teach.

This speech was given at a TED conference. If you have a bit of time, feel free to explore the TED site for more gems like this talk by Adora.
