Everyday Law for Children provides an accessible introduction to
laws that affect children and families and the dominant public
debates that surround and drive these laws. Using real-world
examples, the book exposes the tension between reliance on the
private, autonomous family and the public's desire to secure child
well-being. A look at some public systems, such as child welfare
and juvenile delinquency, shows that an initial public aspiration
to assist children and families is often frustrated by a lack of
resolve and resources. In other areas, such as education and
healthcare, the public shrinks from a commitment to comprehensive
child well-being. Everyday Law for Children makes a case for the
improvement of public systems by focusing on pragmatic goals
related to child well-being. More immediately, it makes a case for
zealous advocates for children who can have a dramatic impact on
children's everyday lives. Accordingly, the book provides an
annotated list of resources and contact information for parents and
for service providers who need help addressing specific problems
within complex public systems.
