How might society benefit if children were recognized as
independent thinkers, capable of seeing clearly and contributing in
valuable ways to our world? How would children's lives change if
what they said was not often ignored or patronized? In the United
States and around the world, ageism remains a widespread prejudice,
leading us to make assumptions about, dismiss, and underestimate
the perspectives of people of particular ages, including children.
Before they utter a word, their voices are judged as less important
than those of adults, or as not important at all. In a series of
conversations with children about many of life's important
philosophical questions, Seen and Not Heardreveals children as
perceptive and original thinkers. Guided by discussions about the
meaning of childhood, friendship, justice and fairness, happiness,
and death, the book invites us to rethink our beliefs about
children and become more receptive to the ways we can learn from
the children in our lives.
