Summary
"An increasing interest in children's lives and the seeking out of their lived experiences has tested the ethical and practical limits of research. Incorporating their voices in meaningful ways is undoubtedly challenging but there remains a lack of acknowledgement of the 'messiness' involved in engaging children in research. Rather than making tricky ethical decisions, transparent researchers tend to gloss over stories that do not fit with sanitized narratives. This co-authored book aims to fill this gap by going beyond what is commonly found in existing books, by making explicit the lived experiences of research with children."-- Provided by publisher
