he problem of childhood management focuses on the impact on the realm of life through direct care exercised over him by his guardians or by public institutions. In this context, the management of childhood concerns family policy, in which the child through their guardians and made their choices become the beneficiary of the rights guaranteed by the state, such as family benefits, relief for families, maternity, parental, etc., regardless of the level of family life and experienced difficulties. This perspective is a wider dimension to the management of childhood. While the narrower scope of the management of childhood comes at a time of an acquisition over the family and the child directly “control” of state institutions when the family itself is unable to independently perform its functions, care and education. This dimension is analyzed by the authors of this study. In their analysis they refer to the process of managing childhood in the structures of the care and educational institutions, indicating at the same time the individual and social consequences of this management for the development of the Little Man.
