The legal definition of "child" generally refers to a minor, otherwise known as a person younger than the age of majority. "Child" may also describe a relationship with a parent or authority figure, or signify group membership in a clan, tribe, or religion; it can also signify being strongly affected by a specific time, place, or circumstance, as in "a child of nature" or "a child of the Sixties."

From Google News Search: "Children" What is the legal child to adult ratio for a church children's ministry? Q. We supervise children from the ages of 5-12 on Sunday mornings. Usually we have 15-25 children with 2-4 adult workers. In a few weeks we are hosting a conference and are planning on that number being at least doubled. I wanted to find out if there is a legal child to adult ratio for churches who care for children, or if that ratio only applies to daycare centers. I want to make sure we have all our bases covered legally and for the safety of the children. Thanks! We are in Pierce County, Washington State.

Answered by kifre_2000 - Fri Feb 13 21:07:28 2009 What is your opinion about comparing your child to other children? Q. I have heard many parents who tell their kids that other children are performing better than they are and that they should live up to the expectations other children are setting. For example, a parent may continuously tell their eight year old that her friend excels in an area she herself may not do very well in as a ways to push them to try harder. Please tell me your opinion about this - is it a means to convince your child to do better, or does it prove to be more of a means of breaking the child's own self esteem? Asked by 9879076 - Fri Nov 27 16:02:34 2009 - - 7 Answers - 0 Comments A. what parent, at one point or another, has never compared their child with another? all parents do that. even subconsciously. thinking it and not saying it is the only decent way to do this. it's very wrong for a parent to pull Junior to one side and tell him that another child is performing better than him. i'm sure some parents think this is a motivational tool, but it's not. it does nothing for the self esteem of the child. telling your child that he's better than someone else is likewise wrong. this tact puts your child on a pedestal he may not be able to come down from well into adulthood. he will have a false sense of superiority and will be hated by most. the best way to motivate a child to perform at his best is to tell… [cont.] Answered by gothika - Fri Nov 27 18:16:28 2009 How can I find places that are offering children to adopt for Christmas?
Q. I live in Florida and am interested in "adopting" needy children (giving them new clothing, toys, etc.) for Christmas. I know the Salvation Army is offering an Adopt a Child for Christmas program at our local mall, but I've adopted six children from this program this year and would like to perhaps find other programs/children that are in need of something for Christmas. Does anyone know of any websites I could check out that would point me in the right direction as to how to locate programs that are offering adults the ability to "adopt" a child for Christmas? Asked by forever.devoted - Sat Nov 18 14:47:17 2006 - - 6 Answers - 0 Comments A. Check with local battered womens shelters and if you have Hospice in your area check with them. Hospice is an organization that provides care to the terminally ill and grief care to the familys of ill patients, you might be able to help out children who have recently lost a parent or someone close during the holidays. also look into adopting an senior citizen. thats what I did last year and got her some slippers and a phonecard to call her family cuz she couldnt afford to. I also must say kudos to you for making such a wonderful difference! :) oh and I forgot to meantion that I found the senior citizen adoption at a local department store on a christmas tree display where you would buy the present at the store and give it to the store… [cont.] Answered by Mayor McKim - Sat Nov 18 14:53:55 2006 From Yahoo Answer Search: "Children" Quotes regarding children.
