LIMA, Glaucineia Gomes de. Criança: objeto a liberado?. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2009, vol.25, n.01, pp.203-218. ISSN 0102-4698.

Lacan approached the child as a freed object a. Thus, the child is captured in pleasure, drama upon which family is structured. These formulations are questioned in the text that approaches child as the current object of pleasure. The departing point is the discussion on the globalized society which heads to the on-going production of consumer objects, labeled by the decay of ideals and its drive to a lethal hedonism. But the consumption imperative in the globalized society has its own consequences on education which entails the logic of instructing for the market, leading to an educational failure, also known as educational uneasiness. What emerges from educators and students is apathy, boredom and indifference in the emptiness that schools seem to have turned into. The results of the return of pleasure fall upon the victimized children's body, an object of violence, pedophilia and of every kind of abuse. Where should the symptoms be listened to in view of the peremptory consumption and the rise of the object, taking into account their effects on the erasing process of child's subjectivity is the concluding question.
