INTRODUCTION

A child is a human being who is not 18 years old. From the age of 18, he will
be considered an adult. Every human being who resides on earth has rights.
Children need special protection and therefore special rights. These rights are
different from those of adults and that is normal. Because they are not yet
grown up, he has the right to be protected, to be educated, to be loved. In this
presentation, our remarks will focus on the different rights of the child.
 I. Responsibility of parents

First, raising children is primarily the responsibility of parents. When a

child has no parents, the responsibility of bringing him up must be given to
another adult who is called a “legal representative”. Indeed, parents and legal
representatives must always consider what is best for the child. The
government of the country must help them. When a child has both parents,
they are both responsible for raising him. Children have the right to have their
own identity, i.e. an official document saying who they are and specifying their
name, nationality and family relationships. No one should take that identity
away from them. The right to identity of the child is the official recognition of
his existence and his rights. When they are born, children must be registered
and given a name officially recognized by the government of their country.
Children must have a nationality (belong to a country). As much as possible,
children should know their parents and be brought up by them.
 II. RIGHT TO EDUCATION
Then, education allows each child to receive an education, to flourish in his
social life and to build his future. This right is essential to economic, social and
cultural development. Children have the right to go to school, to express
themselves, to have their own opinion, to have access to information and to
participate in decisions that affect them. When making decisions, adults need
to think about the effects these decisions will have on children. All adults
should do what is best for children.
 III. Protection against violence

Finally, governments must protect children from violence, abuse and lack of
care and attention from all those who care for them. Every child has the right
to a protective environment to preserve their well-being. He has the right to be
protected against all forms of abuse, discrimination and exploitation.
 IV. Conclusion
At the end of our analysis, it should be remembered that all children in the
world have a right which parents must respect. Thus, we can remedy this
violation of children's rights by raising awareness among our parents or anyone
who takes care of children.
