What is it like to be a child growing up in Britain these days? Is
it a happy time, or is there too much to worry about? What are the
best and worst aspects of being a child today? Children these days
draws on the accounts of over two thousand children, and five
hundred adults, to examine the present day meaning of childhood and
its implications for policy and practice. Key questions addressed
by the study include how is childhood perceived? What is it like to
grow up and become an adult? What are the influences and controls
on young people? Are young people protected or over-protected? How
much do young people and adults respect and talk to each other? To
what extent is Britain a child-friendly society? The book provides
unique evidence on children's and adults' views of childhood, and
draws conclusions on the attitudes and policies to be challenged
and developed in the 21st century. It will make a significant
contribution to contemporary debate and discussion on the future of
childhood. Children these days is essential reading for policy
makers, practitioners, academics, researchers, and students on
childhood studies, social sciences, and social policy courses. It
has been written in a style that means it is also accessible to
others with a more general interest in children and childhood.
