This article aims to analyze, from the reading of Rousseau’s Emile, or On Education, how the concepts of agency and becoming allow us to think about delimitation of childhood that has inside subjectivation processes of how adults and children relate between each other and how these processes are visible in contemporary times. This work questions how is the operationalization of an agency, collective and multiple, but also individual and particular, A-CHILD-BECOMING-ADULT. It has in its interior an adult to be that, in the constitutive multiplicity of what was previously its “being-a-child” and in its present individuality, incorporates “self-government”. Methodologically, this paper dialogue with Rousseau works from the concepts mention earlier and try to express a genealogy of a possible idea of what a child is in nowadays. We conclude by leaving open the possibility of childhood to be a time and a space that enhances the “being-a-child” (discover, play, questioning), aware that there is time to complete the project “a child becoming an adult”.
