Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the significant shift in children's roles within twentieth-century society, arguing that the author's contemporary children think, know, and question more than previous generations. The author posits that while many twentieth-century children are advanced beyond their peers of years past, they are also more susceptible to boredom, restlessness, and the pursuit of constant enjoyment and excitement. The author draws upon her experiences with young friends and acquaintances to illustrate both the benefits and challenges of this shift, noting that despite the new challenges, children continue to possess the same enthusiasm, lively curiosity, and capacity for imagination as ever. The book concludes by reflecting upon the complex and ever-changing relationship between adults and children.
