I’ll state it simply: Children should be included, respected and heard - seriously - in ALL meetings of scientists, psychologists, educators, politicians, managers, healers, etc. We would then have a completely different world!
And I don’t mean the “small people”. I am not referring to size or age, which usually forms our understanding of the “children” group. No, the group I am referring to is a totally different one to our habitual thinking. “Children”, as I refer to them, are very unique people of all ages, who are usually under-estimated (or feared) by our rational, sophisticated, intellectual society.
But they all seem to have some traits in common…
