Definition(s)
- Starting in the 1800s, the clothing, diapering, and feeding of infants—activities that once rested solely in the hands of a baby's primary caretakers—has transformed into a medicalized and commercialized multibillion-dollar industry that now lies in the hands of business. In the early 21st century, global expenditures on children's toys and video games alone are estimated at $86 billion annually.
