System, which was a, a system to kind of request for things that, that the child wanted.

Róisín FarrellGUEST
Um, and I think we've really kind of moved away from that now for a number of reasons.

Róisín FarrellGUEST
I think one of the reasons is, you know, it's, it's really just focused on requesting, you know, asking for things that you want, and there's so many more things that we can communicate for, you know, to say, "I don't want something," or, "I don't like that," or, "This is cool," or, "This is fun," or, "I want to move," or, "I need a break," or, you know, "I'm happy," "I'm sad," "This is boring." There's so many different reasons why we communicate, and we need to have, I suppose, a way, we want children to have a way to express all of their different needs right from the beginning.

Róisín FarrellGUEST
And so that was one of, I suppose, the limitations of, of the previous systems.

Róisín FarrellGUEST
Um, the other thing, I suppose, that we always want is for the child to be able to communicate what they want to say whenev- in whatever way they want to say it.
