    Listening with the ear of the heart: do people listen to us?

    Philabet Rynjah, 15, shares her opinion on what it means to be listened to while also "listening with the ear of the heart"

    We are now living in a post COVID-19 world where many things have changed and many things are also still the same. Schools, colleges, businesses have reopened again and life is almost back to normal.

    We, the young people are looking at the world from a different perspective.

    We are confident and insecure, happy and sad, we feel accepted and rejected at the same time. What we crave most for, is the need to be listened to by parents, teachers and adults.

    The need to be accepted as we are, without being judged. Many times, we are told what to do, what to say and what to believe. Then we are ignored, feared and disrespected.
