Abstract

There is evidence abroad of a cautious if not protective approach to research involving children and young people (CYP). We are sensitive to these views but believe they are based on a misconception that we must address together. In this introductory article we look at the complexities and risks of this research, how we must involving CYP and their families in the all aspects of research, how to seek valid consent and assent and how research findings should be reported. Considering how we should conduct this ongoing debate, we outline seven principles that we believe should underpin the necessary dialogue between all with legitimate interest. Our debate should be: (1) evidence informed: arguments should be supported by appropriate and reasonably accurate factual claims; (2) transparent about the grounds for decisions; (3) balanced: arguments should be met by contrary arguments; (4) conscientious: we must be willing to talk and listen, with civility and respect; (5) substantive: arguments should be considered sincerely on their merits, not on how they are made or by who is making them; (6) comprehensive: all points of view held by significant portions of the population should receive attention; and (7) with procedures for revising decisions in light of challenges, and it should be our responsibility to ensure we have met all of these.
