Consider the following example. Two new children have joined the setting and you would like to find out what they like to do and what their interests are. The children are aged 30 months and although they can talk, they are reluctant to do so. You have been asked by your university to conduct a piece of research into the children’s interests. You decide that these two children are perfect for your research. You decide to follow the children with a camera to take photos of the things that they play with and the activities that they voluntarily engage in. How do you gain consent from the children?
A. Assume consent, the children are too young to give consent anyway B. Ask the children to print their names on a consent form C. Speak to the children’s parents and gain consent from them D. Talk to the children and show them the camera, let them play with it to show them what it does and ask the children if you can take their picture. Watch their body language to ensure that the child is comfortable, and if they show signs that they are not happy, stop taking the photo
