Childhood in the News

Jim Riley

4th February 2010

Lots of stuff today and yesterday about childhood. The Today programme had some interesting discussion about the decline in the number of children dying as a result of violence. Last night’s edition of Newsnight had a very useful discussion on whether the British dislike children. featuring the wonderfully eccentric Camilla Batmangeilidh and Michael Bywater. Useful stuff, as I said. Do try to use it.
