Jordan: Adults Should Grow Up! · Global Voices
Amira Al Hussaini

Ola Eleiwat, from Jordan, is enraged at the extend of child abuse.
“As adults, sometimes we forget what it feels like to be a kid. Worse yet, somewhere in the back of our minds, we think that we have the right to take it out on them whenever we feel like it. Be it anger, frustration, worry, you name it. Sometimes we even recruit them in our battles against other adults. They become a scapegoat for something they have nothing, absolutely nothing to do with. Why? Because we can, and they have to be “good” kids and obey,” she writes.
