Children have been the objects of research for centuries. Some of this research has been conducted perfunctorily in very short time spans. Their parameters are often determined by the funding agencies that do not allow for even the basic rigor to be followed arriving at erroneous results.

It is not surprising therefore that many of these policies have little or no effect on the ground realities of children. Some of them also result in programmes and interventions that actually harm children.
