Voices of our Children

SAVE THE CHILDREN

Respect and trust between an adult and a child is built through communication. A child is a developing individual with feelings and opinions of their own. If children are given a chance to speak, and know that adults are listening, they are able to express their own needs and make sensible and responsible suggestions and decisions.

Often children give an honest and creative answer to a problem that contributes to the well being of themselves, the family and community. Listening to children should be on their own terms and in their own way, each child is very different.
