Adults should start learning from kids-An inspiring TED talk!

"We kids still dream about perfection. And that's a good thing, because in order to make anything a reality you have to dream about it first."
"Kids don't think about the limitations of how hard it can be to blow glass into certain shapes. They just think of good ideas."

"Learning between grown ups and kids should be reciprocal."
"Adults and fellow TEDsters you need to listen and learn from kids and trust us and expect more from us."
"Kids need opportunities to lead and succeed."
