"私は14歳に過ぎませんが、自分が何を望んでいるのかよく知っています。誰が正しくて誰が間違っているのかも分かっています。自分の意見や考え、主義があります。青春期の子供としてはかなりおかしなことのように聞こえるかもしれませんが、私は子供よりも一人の人間としての自覚を強く感じています。"
— Anne Frank
Simplified Meaning:
Even though someone is young, like fourteen years old, they can still understand what they want in life and have strong opinions about what's right or wrong. A young person can have their own ideas and beliefs that guide them. Sometimes, people think that teenagers can’t really understand complex things or have meaningful opinions, but that isn’t always true. For example, think about a young activist like Malala Yousafzai. She started speaking out about girls' education when she was very young. Despite her age, she had clear ideas and strong convictions, showing that she was mature beyond her years. Instead of dismissing young people's thoughts, we should recognize that they can have valuable insights and treat their feelings and thoughts with respect.
