It discusses the established tropes of childhood such as innocence, formative period, centrality of play and the presence of a toy to argue that the mores of childhood are culturally constructed and lead to the reification of a child into the image of perfection. The author debates the notion of essential innocence and highlights the repercussions of such stereotypes about childhood.
