当考虑让孩子参与研究时，英国和国际指导方针建议，除了征得父母的同意外，他们还应该提供同意。然而，对这些指导方针的审查表明，对同意的概念存在混淆。此外，需要得到同意可能会造成问题。指导方针应该修改：不称职的孩子的父母应该代表他们同意，而称职的孩子应该代表他们自己同意。
When children are considered for participation in research, British and international guidelines suggest that they should provide assent in addition to their parents' consent. However, examination of these guidelines shows there is confusion regarding the concept of assent. Furthermore, the need for assent may cause problems. The guidelines should be revised: the parents of incompetent children should consent for them and competent children should consent on their own behalf.
