Children & Animal Companions: Care, love, and grief in multispecies families

How do children and “pets” live together? Do they challenge or reinforce human-animal boundaries? And what role do emotions play?

In this video we explore the complex relationships existing between children and their “pets” by following the questions and findings of the CLAN research project, which stands for Children-Animals Friendships: challenging boundaries between humans and non-humans in contemporary societies.

The research looks at the affective practices existing between children and animal companions, how empathy and relationships develop, how they are defined, how families and households change, and how care plays a vital role.
