The New Restatement of Children and the Law: Legal Childhood in the Twenty-First Century
Since the 1960s, the law regulating children has become increasingly complex and uncertain. In response, in 2015, the American Law Institute launched a new, comprehensive Restatement of Children and the Law. This project, which is ongoing, is organized into four parts: Children in Families, Children in Schools, Children in the Justice System, and Children in Society.
