Many of these rights are common to children and adults and the only difference is that more guarantees must be established to enable children to exercise them. Consideration of characteristics and the situation of the child has been changing significantly over time and in different societies. From the point of view that concerns us the child it has gone from being considered a property of parents to be a social good, which cannot be subjected to the treatment that they want to give, whatever. These changes that have been occurring in the society are linked also to the reduction of infant mortality and the decline in the birth rate in Western countries so that children were becoming a scarce commodity that must be protected. We are also aware of the needs to their better development.
But precisely because some are new or they must satisfy other ways, parents are not always able to meet those needs of the children. The primary needs of the child, whose satisfaction is essential for their development and even for their survival, relate, firstly, to their physical needs: receive food, clothing and have a minimum comfort, which includes rest and cleaning. Those needs are relatively clear, because they are easily observable, and it is not difficult to agree on them. But today we also know that there are other needs that are equally important and related to their psychological well-being. Social demands are much greater, and the living conditions are sometimes difficult, despite all that has increased our control of external reality, that having a child is something that requires a long previous reflection. Obviously this not raised earlier because there was no opportunity to select when you wanted to have a child.
Before people have a child arises if you have a House convenient, if you have a job that allows you to feed it, if you are going to find a school, if you can offer the necessary stability, if it will be possible that the mother continue, if not going to alter too the customs of the House, etc. Adults play a decisive role in the development of the child because it is they who are producing situations so that development occurs in a harmonious manner, they are those who serve you, which stimulate him and those who create the conditions for their physical, intellectual and social development. To learn the child needs a favourable environment, deal with problems that can be resolved, and learns from the conflict between expectations and what happens. But those that help you to go beyond are adults who have to her around and spoke of the metaphor of the scaffolding: adults put scaffolds that encourage or facilitate the construction that the child has to perform by himself. And is that, as the poet said: will want to upload until the sky Tinea / clarity bronze his dream. / But there is no wings. Smite in their endeavour, / and cry about your girl front.
