Historical Trends
Historical trends have long influenced children and their treatment. Before the 18th Century, they were viewed as miniature adults and were held to the same expectations as adults. In the 18th Century, philosophers suggest that children were blank slates and that their environments impressed upon them. In the 19th Century, over-direction of children was viewed as a bad thing for their development. Parenting was finally becoming child-centered. In the 20th Century, behaviorism was introduced and children's behavior was intentionally controlled. Today, parents spend as little time with their children than ever before because of demanding careers and technology.
