Behind the school, on the vacant lot leading to the main road, a large parking lot is planned. This means that the playground of Amira, her classmates, and other children in the neighborhood will disappear. Amira is angry, just like her father, and together they made a video. It went viral and #groeizelfop became a hit. But now the councilor feels threatened, and quite a few parents are angry. Quite childish, of course. But the principal thought it was time for an adult conversation. You are warmly invited.

What can adults impose on children? Does wisdom come with age? What do you unlearn as you grow older? What is your parents' fault? Is it okay to let your child think dumb things? When are you considered an adult?
