In practice, however, we know that most children know very little about their legal rights, and how to exercise them. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\nThis book combines theoretical insight with practical guidance to propose that children can and should be provided with opportunities to develop their ‘legal capability’ – i.e. to develop the legal knowledge, skills and confidence they need to deal effectively with the law related issues they encounter in their everyday lives - at home, in school and in their wider communities. It presents a four-level framework – baseline, advocacy, mastery, and criticality - for developing children’s legal capability. Learning is based on children’s own lived experiences, and how the law applies directly to them. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\nAddressing complex questions surrounding criminal responsibility, legal capacity, and whether children are psychologically and morally capable of developing legal capability, the book offers a ‘how to’ guide for those who wish to take this work forward.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dawn Watkins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49225427190011,"sku":"9781529255416","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/developing-childrens-legal-capability-9781529255416","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
