Por uma Pedagogia da Infância e superação do Adultocentrismo

It discusses situations that portray the adult-centered mentality when the term didn't even exist. This is a qualitative bibliographical and critical study, with empirical fieldwork in a public school in a town that is difficult to access - Priapu/SE - and opted for narrative interviews with children aged between five and eight. The results show that the child's education is affected by the adult-centric mentality and involutes under the adult's impositions on their “destiny”. It warns of the destructiveness of curtailed freedom and highlights the role of childhood pedagogy and listening in favor of the child as a child - a flesh and blood thinking universe who wants to pass.
