40206 - Childhood at a Crossroads: The Battle Over Children’s Innocence and Agency
Mon, August 11, 8:00 to 9:30am, East Tower, Hyatt Regency Chicago, Floor: Concourse Level/Bronze, Michigan 2Description
How are young people helped or harmed through attempts at preserving their innocence? This session examines how institutional agents, parents, and schools are attempting to shield young people from perceived threats to their health, safety, and well-being. Together, these papers reveal how efforts to safeguard childhood innocence – whether through book bans, digital surveillance, or educational mandates – are changing the way that young people are navigating the world and asserting their identities.
