THE special position of infants and young children as subjects in therapeutic and non-therapeutic investigations is highlighted by recently renewed emphasis on the need to obtain formal consent, when (in the words of a National Institutes of Health memorandum) "procedures deviate from accepted medical practice." Who should act for the very young patient by giving consent based on informed understanding? Most codes for investigators specify that consent may be given only by parents or guardians. In these circumstances parents and guardians are forced into the role of arbiters required to make exceptionally difficult judgments in situations which increase in complexity each day that our knowledge increases.

Infants And Young Children

Wet-nursing and fosterage were widely used in early modern Ireland. Despite the difficulties of reconstructing practices surrounding the nourishment and care of infants and young children, the limited surviving sources provide some evidence for the practical arrangements involved, the role of these practices in extending families and creating long-lasting ties of ‘fictive kinship’, the emotional and economic connections they forged and deeply held concerns that they might inspire and extend political disloyalty and disaffection. While fosterage is mostly associated with Gaelic communities, by the sixteenth century, a distinct brand of fosterage was significant to Old English families as well. New English and Protestant families also increasingly participated in networks referred to as fosterage, and references in the 1641 depositions testify to the degree to which these practices linked settlers and natives and the horror inspired by their abandonment.
