Despite their legal status as victims, abused girls were nonetheless viewed by reformers as morally and mentally deficient. I explore the vexed relationship between Illinois's criminal justice and child protection systems, where girls removed from abusive homes were classified as either \"delinquent\" or \"feebleminded\" and subsequently institutionalized despite being victims of crime. I argue that incest victims were the ground upon which the patriarchal family ideal was contested, mapped, and ultimately reinscribed by reformers, upon whom victims depended for help.","PeriodicalId":91623,"journal":{"name":"The journal of the history of childhood and youth","volume":"17 1","pages":"28 - 49"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81936299","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Woo reminds us that ebullient images of humanitarian assistance often mask individual experiences of suffering and loss, as well as less-visible forms of violence and inequities that created the need for assistance in the first place. While Woo situates her book within American studies, it will also be interesting to scholars interested in Cold War studies, Asian studies, international humanitarian assistance, transnational adoption, race, gender, and childhood and youth. The book also connects to the emergent conversation within childhood and youth historiography on the roles of children and youth as pawns and symbols in the Cold War.","PeriodicalId":91623,"journal":{"name":"The journal of the history of childhood and youth","volume":"20 1","pages":"452 - 454"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83289487","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These tensions are clearly laid out in the final words of the introduction, which appreciates youth involvement in contemporary gun reform while noticing the disparities in young people’s ability to have a voice in this issue.
