Adults as advocates for children and young people: Dilemmas and challenges.

"We enter a dangerous space when the adults presumed to provide the strongest advocacy for children and young people in fact only give their own interpretation of what children and young people are saying. Children do not 'need' a voice, they have a voice. It is the responsibility of adults to ensure they have the space and time for their voices to be heard."
