Slide Content

The slide presents a quotation about understanding and the disparity between grown-ups and children in terms of explanation and comprehension. The quote is attributed to Antoine de Saint Exupéry and it is from his well-known work "The Little Prince". The quotation expresses the idea that adults often don't understand things on their own, and this creates a burden on children who constantly have to explain things to them. This is a reflection on the simplicity and clarity of a child's perspective compared to the sometimes needless complexity of an adult's.
