Teaching the adults

-

THE widespread tutting at the climate change protests shows that young people can do no right.

One criticism of youngsters is that they’re lazy and indifferen­t. Then, when children and teens take to the streets over an issue that concerns them, the reaction was that they simply wanted to skip lessons.

How dare these unsophisti­cated minds attempt to deal with complicate­d adult problems!

Sometimes youngsters may seem disconnect­ed from society, but equally we’ve become disconnect­ed from them. youngsters are far smarter and more thoughtful than they’re given credit for. EMILIE LAMPLOUGH,
