“Great ideas often receive violent opposition from mediocre minds.“ – Albert Einstein
Violence often stems from the launch of a new idea, a new way to move forward…from a resistance to change. The opposition to such ideas is often met with violent conflict, sweeping up the minds and lives of young children as it continues to be fueled by misunderstanding and ignorance.
Children as our future leaders look to see how we as adults react to ideas, and when they see conflict over misconceptions and social change, they often find themselves in fear and reluctant to share great ideas. Change can only come through new ideas and the willingness to overcome and triumph in the face of violence, thus we must encourage children and adults alike to foster and share their ideas for change.
