Provide/useful/with

Hi.
May I paraphrase:

"Moral development theory (http://focus.psychiatryonline.org/article.aspx?Volume=2&page=558&journalID=21#Colby-and-Kohlberg-1987) provides a useful framework for interventions with children."
(from http://focus.psychiatryonline.org/article.aspx?Volume=2&page=558&journalID=21 )
as

"Moral development theory () presents an effective framework for interventions regarding children."?

Hi, 'With children' suggests that children are directly involved, directly present. 'Regarding children' does not show this so clearly. eg Maybe the intervention is in the form of a conversation with the parents without the child being present.

Sorry, I forgot about the others.
