Vygotsky In 21st Century Society

CHILDREN .... FIRST ....


Countless times we have heard and read that sentence ... " Children First."

Jesus himself proclaimed ... " let the children come to me" ... .

Former President Juan Domingo Perón could say:

"We want future generations to know Argentine smile from childhood ... Under the glorious folds of our flag, can not and must be Argentine children can not go to school or having to go to her malnourished. Nor should be malnourished living in homes without light and heat. We fight, men of this government, because you, the children may live this carefree, delivered to your games and your studies, covered in a family cristianamente constituida, seguros del porvenir ”.-

De más está decir que no hubo ni un aspirante a la presidencia, que en plena campaña no se sacara la consabida foto con un niño en los brazos …en las manifestaciones las madres le alcanzan sus bebés a los presidenciables para que ellos los alcen…(imágenes enternecedoras)….

Esto, y mucho más, cuenta a la hora de mostrar nuestro interés por la niñez.
Sin embargo, y muy a pesar nuestro, todos los días podemos ver a cientos de niños en situación de mendicidad, de trabajo infantil, de abandono en sus distintas formas y variables.-

Que nos pasa como personas (And as society as a whole) when a child asks us money? ... Our mind does realize that behind that small is an organization that exploits them ... or that their parents are waiting to get hidden then DineroYa / or beat if you got nothing ... or bigger ones take advantage of them ... etc. .. etc. .. etc. .. Sorry ... what? Does the hearts of us panic?

"We are hoarse!? We are scared? Impotence ?....

Is well and is supportive help that child with money? Or with that we become complicit in their misfortune and slavery offering coins ?.... Is it better to buy food? Or do you take to our house? ... or call the secretary of children and ask that the state take over or indifference ?...¿ body is in us and as a defensive ... (not suffering) ... look the other way ... or we repeat phrases like "that injustice " or " in other countries this does not happen " or " parents are a p h" ... o. .. " the state does not have to do anything "and thousands of etceteras ..?

But we, are we responsible for this? Or just circumstantial participate ...? We are participating
necessary? .. And then .. what would be the attitude hostel a greater good for the child and thus to our society?
Do we know how many children remain homeless and living at the expense of begging and the burden ?...¿ are aware that soon will grow up with all the pain in his psyche and body (worn by the speed of having to grow up without games , without food, warmth and affection)? .-

"True to our society" children come first?

How can we make a safety net and justice for these children do not lose their children in the path of the urban jungle ...?.

Do we have an answer for this pain overcomes reality? Hopefully

yes .- That once and forever all children, by the mere fact of being in this world deserve equal opportunities.

It's only fair ... And at that moment, our society, could be called Digna .-
