The authors confront many difficult questions such as: Are the rights that our nation's laws ascribe to children commensurate with their capabilities and needs? How should laws governing the punishment of crime acknowledge developmental differences between adult and juvenile offenders? Throughout the book, the authors consider (a) current laws and policies relating to children; (b) how social science research can test assumptions behind child-relevant laws and policies; (c) ways that courts can become more receptive to social science recommendations; and (d) challenges faced in the 21st century as our society continues its struggle to accommodate children's concerns within our legal system. With its unique integration of psychological research, social policy, and legal analysis, the volume is an important resource for any professional concerned with children and the law. 606 $aChildren$xLegal status, laws, etc$zUnited States 606 $aSocial case work with children$zUnited States 606 $aChild welfare$zUnited States 615 0$aChildren$xLegal status, laws, etc. 615 0$aSocial case work with children 615 0$aChild welfare 676 $a346.7301/35 701 $aBottoms$b Bette L$01623790 701 $aKovera$b Margaret Bull$f1966-$01702292 701 $aMcAuliff$b Bradley D.$f1971-$01756726 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811364403321 996 $aChildren, social science, and the law$94194187 997 $aUNINA
