Abstract
The thesis of this Article is that we have skipped an important step, in that there is much work that still needs to be done to resolve the proper mode of analysis. This Article explores the relevant considerations and offers an analytic framework or paradigm for determining the role of counsel for "young children.", For these purposes, the term "young children" will be defined to mean children so young that they cannot articulate their preferences to counsel (e.g., newborns to children ages two or three) and children who, though old enough to communicate, would be considered to be "impaired," within the meaning of Rule 1.14 of the Model Rules of Professional Conduct ("Model Rules" or "Rules").'
