title = "Children and Negotiation of Family Rules in Ibadan, Nigeria",
abstract = "The family remains the primary institution responsible for child socialisation particularly as it inculcates norms, values, sanctions and rewards. Restrictions within the family institution have implications for children's voices, especially within the cultural context of the Yoruba people. This chapter examines how children adapt to or negotiate changes to family rules, thereby contributing their voice to systems reproduction. Discussions in this chapter are based on case studies of children in Ibadan, a traditional setting with steady rate of modernisation. Data were collected through a total of 50 in-depth interviews (IDIs) within 4 local government areas of the metropolis. 40 children and 10 parents were included in the IDIs. Robust findings were made and explained within the framework of structuration theory.",
