Meaningful Play - Law

Law

Meaningful play has also been used in the field of law. Difficult topics that arise during court cases or when attempting to retrieve eyewitness testimony can be problematic when dealing with children. Multiple methods (mostly placed under the label of play therapy) have been used such as fantasy role-playing or using dolls for children to recreate, through playing, the way they recall events.

Famous quotes containing the word law:

    The first law of story-telling.... Every man is bound to leave a story better than he found it.
    Humphrey, Mrs. Ward (1851–1920)

    Courts of law, and all the paraphernalia and folly of law ... cannot be found in a rational state of society.
    Robert Owen (1771–1858)

    Justice begins with the recognition of the necessity of sharing. The oldest law is that which regulates it, and this is still the most important law today and, as such, has remained the basic concern of all movements which have at heart the community of human activities and of human existence in general.
    Elias Canetti (b. 1905)
