Abstract
This article sustains the thesis that boys and girls can be formed as subject; it’s considered hat the formation of subjects is a socio-cultural and political process that can exist in the social group, class, culture or ethnic group to which one belongs since there is an ideal of how children must be. An analysis is carried out based on questioning the dominant perception that is held over girls and boys, that does not answer to the real conditions of the flesh and bone Mexican children; in a second stage, the concepts that allow to understand the meaning and content of the subject category in girls and boys are reviewed; finally a proposal of a pedagogical triad to form ourselves as subjects is presented: the speaking, listening and writing.
