This article aims to analyze how the conception of childhood and adolescence adopted by the social actors of the Protection Network guides the performance in guaranteeing the rights of children and adolescents. In this article, Vygotsky's historical-cultural theory is adopted. 10 social actors that are part of the System of Guarantees of Rights of a city in Tocantins participated. This is an exploratory study, in which a qualitative approach was chosen, using semi-structured interviews for data collection. For data analysis, Bardin's Thematic Content Analysis was used. The results showed that the concept of childhood and adolescence is rooted in a naturalizing and developmental conception. The subjects are treated in a homogeneous manner, disregarding their particularities. It is noticed that the peculiar criterion of the developing subject is questioned and seen as an error of the law, and that it should consider adults and children with the same obligations and penalties.
