If we desire a kinder nation, seeing it through the eyes of children is an eminently sensible endeavor: A city that is pro-child, for example, is also a more humane place for adults. - Richard Louv, from ‘Childhood’s Future’, part 1, ch. 3 (1991).
More than a city that is pro-child we must work to see a world that is pro child, a world where children no longer have to live in fear. A world in which children are not the pawns of war, the heartless victims of political roulette, the unwitting legacies of ruthless leaders…the children for which childhood has no meaning. For the world in which children are allowed to be children is the world in which we will find peace.
