What are'children's
rights'?
Children are entitled to basic human rights
such as food, health care, a safe home and protection from abuse. However,
children are a special case because they cannot always stand up for themselves.
They need a special set of rights which takes account of their vulnerability
and which ensures that adults take responsibilitiy for their protection and
development.
