Abstract

A huge amount of research has been conducted with young children. Some research is completed by undergraduate students as part of their graduate requirement while another is conducted by early childhood education teachers as part of their career as well as professional promotion. While the discourse of children's rights in Indonesia is often overlooked, it has been actually widely argued that doing research with young children yields ethical consideration. Young children are situated as fragile human being when at the same time, they possess the same rights as possessed by adults. This paper attempts to illuminate some issues in doing research with young children. Furthermore, this paper particularly focuses on how to include children's voices in a research context within the discourse of protection.
