Lacan
"For Lacan, it is only when the child accedes to castration and the Law of the father, that s/he becomes fully competent as a language-speaker within his/her given social collective."

Had a read from this about how there are set rules to learning lauguage, refered to as 'laws'

Gender Dysphoria

Childhood and Gender, iv been looking at an article about a little boy who from the age of 8 was living as a little girl at home, and at 9 started school as a school.
Born In The Wrong Body - Accessed 3.11.11

Along with this article is a clip of the mother speaking and talking about how they tried to keep there child as a boy and took away the choice of female stuff//toys. And how she heard there child upset and ashamed when the child couldnt control what was happening and when they gave into girls toys she was a much happier child. As a child of 8 new what was happening was different and not 'normal'.

As a female the changes mentioned are shes bouncy and smiles, a much happier life as the person she wants.
When listening to the child...now 16, she even sounds female has a life, the freinds and a bf and is comfortable as the person they are.

Parents chose to let the child make there own choice and unlike an article i previously blogged Gender Neutrality on the boy who had mistake in surgary, the choice was made by the parents and eventually returned to his biologal gender as he was unhappy. Gender being changed from looking at these needs to be something in the child that they feel needs to be done, not just done for convience.

Gender, some articles on girls and boys being compared.

Girls Believe they are better than boys from aged 4

Child Poverty

 Some information how goverment want to deal with child poverty and there plans to get rid of it.
They want it gone by 2020, ans this has some useful links to different articles on child poverty, and the connection to education :)

In lesson i kept asking about different areas and whats considered a low income in one area may not be in another...so the article on Child Poverty Date was interesting to me about local needs assesment and helping areas that need it.
