Would you consider a child's suggestions seriously?

Honestly, I rarely take my little brother's suggestions into consideration.Yet,sometimes ,When thinking backward, his advices can be of great value to me.
Children really have another perspective to judge things,they are more single-minded and thus can find the main point from a complex problem. Yet ,some people like me doubt children' ability and take on an air of indiffrence towards children when they give sincere advices to us.
Here,I want to say,"never underestimate children' ability."In fact, we were children decades ago. Who dare say we didn't have creation to deal with difficulties back then?

Yes, I support you colourless, children have a way of looking at things from a different angle from us grown ups and children can give an honest judgement and opinion compared to adults and we should not underestimate the strength of a child. yes we were once kids and we yearned for grown ups to take our advices into consideration but sometimes they ignored and we felt bad. My kid brother is only 3 years younger than me but he can think like my father or even wiser. I respect them.

Yep,actually the more we take children's advice, they are more active in creating ways to deal with difficulties. This, in some way, cultivates children's ability.
I believe your brother must be a creative guy. ^_^
