"The worst thing you can do to a kid is tell them that their dreams are invalid"

- Juliette Lewis

About this Quote

In this quote, actress Juliette Lewis is highlighting the destructive effect of revoking a child's dreams. By telling a child that their dreams are not legitimate, it can squash their self-confidence and discourage them from pursuing their passions. This can result in feelings of insufficiency and a lack of confidence in their abilities. As grownups, it is essential to support and encourage kids to dream huge and think in themselves. Invalidating their dreams can limit their prospective and impede their growth. Lewis reminds us that as adults, we have a responsibility to support and boost the dreams of children, instead of tearing them down.
