From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article is about the human "child", plural "children". For other uses, see Child (disambiguation).
Children in school
A child (plural: children) is a human between the stages of birth and puberty. The legal definition of "child" generally refers to a minor, otherwise known as a person younger than the age of majority. "Child" may also describe a relationship with a parent or authority figure, or signify group membership in a clan, tribe, or religion; it can also signify being strongly affected by a specific time, place, or circumstance, as in "a child of nature" or "a child of the Sixties."[1]

Legal definitions

Population aged under 15 years in 2005
The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child defines a child as "a human being below the age of 18 years unless under the law applicable to the child, majority is attained earlier."[2] Ratified by 192 of 194 member countries. Biologically, a child is anyone in the developmental stage of childhood, between infancy and adulthood.

Attitudes toward children

Social attitudes toward children differ around the world in various cultures. These attitudes have changed over time. .A 1988 study on European attitudes toward the centrality of children found that Italy was more child-centric and Holland less child-centric, with other countries, such as Austria, Great Britain, Ireland and West Germany falling in between.^ Twins receive a great deal of admiration and attention from outsiders, they take more of their parent’s time, and they are so often so devoted to each other that they shun other children.

 ^ The toy and small breeds such as Chihuahuas, Yorkshire Terriers, Boston Terriers, and other similar sized breeds are perfect for children.

 ^ This meningitis is more common in children two to six years old who are exposed to a number of other children, such as in day care centers, or who stay with babysitters who care for four or more children.

Age of responsibility

Children in Jerusalem
The age at which children are considered responsible for their own actions (e.g., marriage, voting, etc.) has also changed over time, and this is reflected in the way they are treated in courts of law. In Roman times, children were regarded as not culpable for crimes, a position later adopted by the Church. In the nineteenth century, children younger than seven years old were believed incapable of crime. Children from the age of seven were considered responsible for their actions. Therefore, they could face criminal charges, be sent to adult prison, and be punished like adults by whipping, branding or hanging.[4]
Surveys have found that at least 25 countries around the world have no specified age for compulsory education. Minimum employment age and marriage age also vary. In at least 125 countries, children aged 7-15 may be taken to court and risk imprisonment for criminal acts. .In some countries, children are legally obliged to go to school until they are 14 or 15 years old, but may also work before that age.^ Never go out and just buy a puppy for your child because just like humans, they have their own personalities and may not be the right match for your child.

 ^ For example, if you feel your child is going to need some medicine, don’t wait to call until all the local drugstores are closed.

 ^ Consider how many children will be there during the day, large groups may not work well for a shy, easily “lost” child.

 A child's right to education is threatened by early marriage, child labour and imprisonment. [5]

Socialization of the child

Children in Namibia
All children go through stages of social development. An infant or very young child will play alone happily. If another child wanders onto the scene, he or she may be physically attacked or pushed out of the way. Next, the child is able to play with another child, gradually learning to share and takes turns. Eventually the group grows larger, to three or four children. .By the time a child enters kindergarten, he or she is usually able to join in and enjoy group experiences.^ Live Experiences by tristan.koreya The Live Experience by psychonausea Scrap_Iron's all-time favourite artists by Scrap_Iron Artists, DJ:s & Groups I've seen live by Stormbringer edit YouTube Videos .

 [6]
Children with ADHD and learning disabilities may need extra help in developing social skills. .The impulsive characteristics of an ADHD child may lead to poor peer relationships.^ If you have strong feelings about your child’s care, such an approach may lead to conflict.

 Children with poor attention spans may not tune in to social cues in their environment, making it difficult for them to learn social skills through experience.[6]

 yEvor, Lat. genus, and Eng. "kin"; cild has been held to be a modification of the same root, but the true root is kilth, seen in Goth. kilthei, womb, an origin which appears in the expressions "child-birth," "to be with child," and the like; the plural in A.S. was cild, and later cildru, which in northern M.E. became childre or childer, a form dialectically extant, and in southern English childeren or children (with the plural termination -en, as in "brethren"). There are several particular uses of "child" in the English version of the Bible, as of a young man in the "Song of the three holy children," of descendants or members of a race, as in "children of Abraham," and also to express origin, giving a description of character, as "children of darkness." During the 13th and 14th centuries "child" was used, in a sense almost amounting to a title of dignity, of a young man of noble birth, probably preparing for knighthood. .In the York Mysteries of about 1440 (quoted in the New English Dictionary) occurs "be he churl or child," obviously referring to gentle birth, cf.^ Web Glossary: Child Glossary definitions and related terms from multiple web glossaries Child Overall summary information about Child Reference: Child Child Add this content to your site.

 William Bellenden's translation (1553) of Livy (ii. 124) "than was in Rome ane nobill childe ... namit Caius Mucius." The spelling "childe" is frequent in modern usage to indicate its archaic meaning. .Familiar instances are in the line of an old ballad quoted in King Lear, " childe Roland to the dark tower came," and in Byron's Childe Harold.

 .In England the British Child Study Association was founded in 1894, its official organ being the Paidologist, while similar work is done by the Childhood Society, and, to a certain extent, by the Parents' National Educational Union (which issues the Parents' Review). In America, where specially valuable work has been done, several universities have encouraged the study (notably Chicago, while under the auspices of Professor John Dewey); and Professor G. Stanley Hall's initiative has led to elaborate inquiries, the principal periodical for the movement being the Pedagogical Seminary. The impetus to this study of the child's mind and capacities was given by the classic work of educationists like J. A. Comenius, J. H. Pestalozzi, and F. W. A. Froebel, but more recent writers have carried it much further, notably W. T. Preyer (The Mind of the Child, 1881), whose psychological studies stamp him as one of the chief pioneers in new methods of investigation.^ One thing is absolutely certain: having a new baby is not an excuse for looking or feeling out of shape.

 ^ This may require a trip to the pet store or breeder so that your child can interact with several dogs and choose the one that best suits him.

 ^ Bear in mind that the ultimate benefits of your rapport with Grandma will go to your child, whose relationship with her is priceless.

 Other authorities of first-rate importance (their chief works only being given here) are J. Sully (Studies of Childhood, 1896), Earl Barnes (Studies in Education, 1896, 1902), J. M. Baldwin (Mental Development in the Child and the Race, 1895), Sigismund (Kind and Welt, 1897), A. F. Chamberlain (The Child, 1 9 00), G. Stanley Hall (Adolescence, 1904; he had from 1882 been the leader in America of such investigations), H. Holman and R. Langdon Down (Practical Child Study, 1899), E. A. Kirkpatrick (Fundamentals of Childstudy, 1903), and Prof. Tracy of Toronto (Psychology of Childhood, 5th ed., 1901); while among a number of contributions worth particular attention may be mentioned W. B. Drummond's excellent summary, Introduction to Child Study (1907), which deals succinctly with methods and results; Irving King's Psychology of Child Development (1906, useful for its bibliography); Prof. David R. Major's First Steps in Mental Growth (1906); and Miss M. Shinn's Notes on the Development of a Child (1893) and Mrs Louise E. Hogan's Study of a Child (1898), which are noteworthy among individual and methodical accounts of what children will do. .In such books as those cited a great deal of important material has been collected and analysed, and a number of conclusions suggested which bear both on psychology and the science of education; but it must be borne in mind, as regards a great deal of the voluminous literature of the subject, that it is often more pertinent to general psychology and hygiene than to any special conclusions as to the essential nature of a child - whatever "a child" generically may be as the special object of a special science.^ Both kinds of specialists can take care of normal children equally well, however, if your child ha special problems, a pediatrician may be better.

 ^ Bear in mind that the ultimate benefits of your rapport with Grandma will go to your child, whose relationship with her is priceless.

 .The child, after all, is in a transition stage to an adult, and there is often a tendency in modern "child students" to interpret the phenomena exhibited by a particular child with a parti pris, or to exaggerate child-study - which is really interesting as providing the knowledge of growth towards full human equipment - as though it involved the discovery of some distinct form of animal, of separate value on its own account.^ For example, if you feel your child is going to need some medicine, don’t wait to call until all the local drugstores are closed.

 But a knowledge of the more important features of normal physical development has a constant importance. .Some of these, as matters of comparative physiology or pathology, are dealt with in other articles in this work.^ You can influence some of these factors but not others.

 One of these chief matters of interest is weight and height, and this is naturally affected by race, nutrition and environment. But while the standard in different countries somewhat differs, the British average for healthy children may here be followed. .At birth the average weight of a baby is a little over 7 lb and the length about 20 in.^ They will also measure the baby’s weight, head circumference, [the distance around her head], and body length.
