- Historical Differences
- Aries claims childhood in medieval Europe did not exist. Didn't have a different 'nature' to adults. Worked from an early age. They were 'mini-adults' with the same duties and skill
- Shorter claims high child death rates encouraged indifference and neglect.

- Why had the position of children changed? Lower infant mortality rates and smaller families / specialist knowledge of children's health / banning of child labour / compulsory schooling / child protectioand welfare laws / idea of child's rights / laws about social behaviour (minimum drinking age etc)

Protected from exploitation and harm with legislation

- Conflict View: Gender differences (e.g girls expected to do more housework). Ethnic Differences (e.g Asian parents more likely to be strict towards daughters than sons).

- Future of Childhood
- Postman argues that childhood is disappearing and that children are becoming more like adults. They are gaining similar rights and act similarly (clothing, leisure, crime). This is the rexult of television culture replacing print culture which gives children the same information
