In my opinion, the word voice is extremally powerful. Our voice represents our freedom and that's one of the most important things in the world. As a child, we don't realize that we have our own voice. Usually, decisions are made by adults and we just go with it. That's why children should find and use their own voice because their thoughts and opinion are important. As to Tara, I feel that she was still in the child phase, because of her father and Shawn. And I do identify with her realization, because finding your voice is gaining a new power
