This article proposes an ethnographical approach to the audiences with children and adolescents held in "Juvenile Courts" in São Paulo. It discusses problems involving the Brazilian legislation for children, analyses the difficulties of implementation of the Statute for the Child and the Adolescent and reflects about the particularities of working with ethnography when the Law is the object.

Keywords : Statute for the Child and the Adolescent; Justice; Febem.
