Bioarchaeological studies of children have, until recently, centered on population data-driven topics like mortality rates and growth and morbidity patterns. This volume examines emerging issues in childhood studies, looking at historic and prehistoric contexts and framing questions about the nature and quality of children’s lives. How did they develop their social identity? Were they economic actors in early civilizations? Does their health reflect the larger community? Comparing and contrasting field research from a variety of sites across Europe and the Americas, the contributors to this volume demonstrate that children not only have unique experiences but they also share, cross-culturally, in daily struggles. Their lives differ significantly from those of adults due to disparate social identities and variable growth needs. In some of the cases presented, this is the first time that child remains have been examined in any detail, making Tracing Childhood an essential resource for scholars and researchers in this growing field.

As in her former books, Alice Miller again focusses on facts. She is as determined as ever to cut through the veil that, for thousands of years now, has been so meticulously woven to shroud the truth. And when she lifts that veil and brushes it aside, the results are astonishing, as is amply demonstrated by her analyses of the works of Nietzsche, Picasso, Kollwitz, Keaton and others. With the key shunned by so many for so long - childhood - she opens rusty looks and offers her readers a wealth of unexpected perspectives.What did Picasso express in "Guernica"? Why did Buster Keaton never smile? Why did Nietzsche heap so much opprobrium on women and religion, and lose his mind for eleven years? Why did Hitler and Stalin become tyrannical mass murderers? Alice Miller investigates these and other questions thoroughly in this book. She draws from her discoveries the conclusion that human beings are not "innately" destructive, that they are made that way by ignorance, abuse, and neglect, particularly if no sympathetic witness comes to their aid. She also shows why some mistreated children do not become criminals but instead bear witness as artists to the truth about their childhoods, even though in purely intuitive and unconscious ways.

Every family historian has child ancestors, and childhood experiences and records are an essential aspect of research into a past life. That is why Sue Wilkes's detailed and accessible handbook is such a useful guide for anyone who is trying to find out about the early years of their forbears. In Tracing Your Ancestors' Childhood she explores the history of childhood and education and brings together information about relevant records and archives into one handy reference guide. She outlines ancestors' childhood experiences at home, school, work and in institutions, especially during Victorian times. In the opening chapter she reviews basic family history sources, then she discusses records of childhood in detail. Specialist archives, published sources, recommended reading and other resources and documents are covered. She focuses primarily on England and Wales and covers the years 1750–1950. The second part of her book is a directory of archives and specialist repositories. Databases of children's societies, useful genealogy websites, and places to visit which bring the social history of childhood to life are all included.

Available Open Access under CC-BY-NC licence. What matters most in how poverty shapes children’s wellbeing and development? How can data inform social policy and practice approaches to improving the outcomes for poorer children? Using life course analysis from the Young Lives study of 12,000 children growing up in Ethiopia, India, Peru and Vietnam over the past 15 years, this book draws on evidence on two cohorts of children, from 1 to 15 and from 8 to 22. It examines how poverty affects children’s development in low and middle income countries, and how policy has been used to improve their lives, then goes on to show when key developmental differences occur. It uses new evidence to develop a framework of what matters most and when and outlines effective policy approaches to inform the no-one left behind Sustainable Development Goal agenda.

Are you looking for a fun workbook to help you teach your child to write? Then you are in the right place! Take your child on an exciting journey through the entire ABC and all the numbers from 0 to 30 with: Letter And Number Tracing Book For Kids Ages 3-5: A Fun Practice Workbook To Learn The Alphabet And Numbers From 0 To 30 For Preschoolers And Kindergarten Kids! This exercise book introduces your child to writing letters and numbers in a playful and age-appropriate manner that will help him or her get to know the alphabet and the numbers 0 to 30. In this way, children are guided and optimally prepared for pre-school and primary school. The book is divided into sections: numbers and letters. The learning process is guided as follows: Letters Every letter is new territory for your child. The first step is to get to know the letter and practice through the correct pen guidance by simply tracing it. This is followed by a word containing the letter you have just learned. So your child learns to put the letter in a word. Encourage your child to read the word aloud to directly practice the corresponding sound. Finally, your child learns to write the letter freely and independently. Numbers To understand the meaning of numbers, your child starts counting picture elements. Then, just as with letters, he or she will have to trace the numbers. As soon as they become more confident, free writing follows the number you have just learned, with guidelines ensuring that the number is placed at the correct height. In both areas, learning takes place in a meaningful and reliable structure that gives your child security and constantly encourages them to see their own progress. Parents can help their children work through this exercise book and provide the necessary support. After all, writing is not easy for every child. Parents should keep a special eye on the correct pen position and hand guidance and celebrate every milestone with their child. For both numbers and letters, encourage your child to speak out loud about what he or she has learned. The more senses are involved in the learning process, the faster and easier it is to learn. By completing this exercise book, your child will be able to write the lower and upper case letters from A to Z, as well as the numbers 0 to 30. It is especially important that your child can work and learn at their own pace. This is the only way to keep the fun and become more confident in writing from letter to letter, or from number to number. A quick look at the most important facts of the book: Suitable for children from ages 3 to 5 Sensible structure that optimally accompanies the learning process Great preparation for pre-school and kindergarten A fun way to learn the numbers from 0 to 30 and the letters A to Z Designed and sensibly structured to suit children Promotes correct pen management and concentration Lots of space for free practice Lovely designs Combine play with learning.
