What adults can learn from kids

1. What does Adora say about adults listening to young people?
She said a point about that "even your an adult, you shouldn't be afraid of making a really ridiculous dream about something as a child". And that sometimes adult might have to have that kind of dream to actually sees the true side of the fact. Also that "Children and adults should learn from each others."

2. What do you think about her argument?
I think is a really nice speech. All the ideas that she came up are those ideas that adults will never actually realized what they already lost. Its all from a little 12 years old girl's eyes of this girl. (but she is super intelligent though.)

3. What parts do you agree with? Why?
I agree with the parts that she said about that the adult is afraid to dream about little cute things as children does because they thinks that people will think they are childish. In my view, I don't feel any of these. In our age, teenager, is a period of age that from a child turns to a actual man. But I never felt that way about saying anything childish and what to be a shamed of. Cause sometimes childish and pure makes people see the truth of things. Just like in the story "The Emperor's New Clothes" in the nearly end, the little boy just points out the view that the king is actually not wear ANY clothes. But because those adults are thinking too pretentious so after all turn them be blind about what they see.

4. What parts do you disagree with? Why?
I think sometimes we still might have to hesitate about our dreams. Don't get too much hope about it, cause sometimes it just won't work in that situation. And another part is that adults can SOMETIMES still dream about whatever. But that doesn't mean you should be dreaming about whatever ALL THE TIME>

5. Describe what makes Adora such a confident public speaker. Is she an example of why adults should listen more to kids?
Trust. Trust makes all things work. Her parents give her space to do things that she likes and thinking about ideas and reading books. Even bought her a nice computer. That shows how much trust and love there is in all these things her parents do for her. And also she is a model of that adults should listen to kids more. Adults should trust kids. "Let go when they need to support when they have to."
