Child care law and policy issues generate very strong emotions and
some crucial questions concerning the role of the state. For
instance, under what circumstances should the state be able to
intervene and use the force of the law to protect children? Do
children have similar rights to adults? Such questions are matters
of controversial debate and, in the light of well publicised child
abuse cases, official inquiries and a government review led to the
passing of the Children Act in 1989. Perspectives in Child Care
Policy presents four different value perspectives on child care
policy - laissez-faire; state paternalism; defence of the birth
family and children's rights. These perspectives differ in their
underlying values, concepts and assumptions concerning children,
families, the rights and powers of parents and the role of the
state.
