Doctor in country with new kids (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

children

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'kids' is the definition.
(I know that kids can be written as children)

'doctor in country with new' is the wordplay.
'doctor' becomes 'Dr' (abbreviation).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'country' becomes 'Chile' (Chile is a country).
'with new' becomes 'n' (common abbreviation eg NT for New Testament. I am not sure about the 'with' bit.).
'dr' going within 'chile' is 'childre'.
'childre'+'n'='CHILDREN'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for children that I've seen before include "Little ones" , "Sons and daughters" , "Young folk" , "Issue" , "Minors" .)
