The Child in Need: Children, the State and the Law David Bedingfield
Examines the legal rights of children across a range of issues such as housing, education, family relationships and crime. The text sets out how the State might protect, or neglect, children whose needs cannot be fully met within the family. For each area it explains how these rights are defined and sets out how legal representitives of children should advise both the child and the parents when these problems arise.
