文章认为，虽然绿色文件为社会改变儿童及其父母的生活开辟了新的可能性，但同时也关闭了这些可能性。其中一个原因是它未能明确其愿景和价值观。本文总结了绿色文件中的主要建议，然后集中讨论三个问题：尊重儿童和童年的意义;儿童是否被视为现在和未来的公民;以及对父母-国家伙伴关系理念的信任。讨论突出了权利与责任、保护与惩罚以及教育范围之间的特别紧张关系。
The article argues that, while the Green Paper opens up new possibilities for the way society can transform the lives of children and their parents, it also, at the same time, closes these off. One reason for this is its failure to be explicit about its vision and its values. The article summarizes the main proposals in the Green Paper, and then focuses on three issues: the meaning of respect for children and childhood; whether children are seen as citizens of the present as well as the future; and the place of trust in the idea of the parent-state partnership. The discussion highlights particular tensions between entitlement and responsibility, protection and punishment, and in the scope of education.
