Such concepts are materialized in the interventions of professionals Rights Guarantee System. The objective of this study is to present how professional social assistance institutions understand the child and the child at risk. Through interviews with tutelary counselors of a region of the Federal District, it was possible to undertake a critical reading of the speeches of professionals, building up towards areas related to the child as the subject of fault and the risk as engendered by impoverished families and neglectful for the basic rights of children. Finally, it points out that the political emergence of children in Brazilian society will happen through reformulations about the meanings constructed by social actors.
