CHILDREN'S RIGHTS 

Mihaela believes that children need a peaceful environment in order to develop in the right way, so being somewhere next to violence and crime will influence their growth negatively. The first years of life are critical and should be focused on skill development such as writing, communication and not on violence.

War has bad effects on adults, it causes PTSD, malnutrition, disability, anxiety and many more. These things are hard to deal with, even for a grown up, so for a child it would be at least as hard.

All children have the right to a united family. All the members of the family must love each other.

Children have the right to food, clothing and a safe place to live so they can develop in the best possible way.&nbsp;

Dan chose to illustrate a very serious right in a way that makes it more approachable - the prevention of sale and trafficking of children. Using the famous catchphrase from the beloved children's cartoon Dora The Explorer, 'Swiper no swiping', he funnily portrayed the necessity of protecting otherwise helpless children from those who wish them harm.

I chose this children right because I think it is important to have personal control of your data.

In many cases this is very difficult, but the child must be in contact with both parents

In my opinion the most important right is “KEEPING FAMILIES TOGETHER” because all children must live together with both parents.

N. 5 FAMILY GUIDANCE AS CHILDREN DEVELOP

Aims of education In Lexi's view this is one of the most important rights for a child. A person, of any age, should be encouraged to follow their dreams and pursue their passion. Not everybody has the same talents and inclinations. Also, if they are encouraged, later on, they will tend to be confident.

For me one of the most important children's rights is to welcome with love every child who runs away from his war country, because after what he has seen and suffered, he deserves a family, education, a warm place and a happy childhood.

They deserve protection and help for the traumas they experienced .

Parents are responsible for many things: Where does the child live? Does it have medical treatment? How and where is the child educated? Which religion does a child follow? What is the child’s name? Can the child leave the country for a holiday or to live in another country?&nbsp;

N. 28 ACCESS TO EDUCATION

In my opinion the basic right of all others is access to education. Every child has the right to go to school and have an education

Children with disabilities have the right to enjoy life like other children.

Parents have the responsibility to protect their children from drugs. Parents must not make their children sell drugs.

Children need to be safe. Governments must protect them from violence!

The right all of us in this project are benefitting from right now is access to education, but we should remember not to take it for granted. Thanks to Nick, we are reminded of how knowledge can be used as a shield for many of the adversities we might face in our lives.

1.2 million children are trafficked each year. Every year 300,000 children are taken from all around the world and sold by human traffickers as slaves.&nbsp;

N. 18 RESPONSIBILITY OF PARENTS

I chose this right because I think that if a child does damage , it is right for parents to take responsability.&#160;

All children should be able to become members of groups, organisations or other groups. Children should do things that please them.&nbsp;

Adults must take into account their children and their wishes. When adults make decisions, they should think about how their decisions will affect children. For instance, parents must not put their child at risk.

Rares thinks that everyone should be able to freely speak their minds, regardless of their age. Everyone has thoughts, feelings and ideas that they want to share and everyone should have this right.

N. 19 Protection from violence

I think that violence against children is a very serious crime and only a very cruel man can do it. There are many people in the world who abuse children, but I hope these people realize what a cruel heart they have.

N. 2 NO DISCRIMINATION

In my opinion one of the most important children's rights is that of no discrimination. Each of us is different, but that doesn't mean we're not equally important. All are the same even with some differences.

A child is any person under the age of 18.

Like all of us, Daria knows how important health, water, food and a good environment are, which is why she beautifully represented all of them in this drawing. Those of us who have access to clean water and a health insurance, shouldn't forget how lucky we are.

Nichita drew a beautiful representation of the right to protection of privacy. With the rise of the internet and with more and more children having access to it comes a responsibility to protect their information.

All children have rights no matter: ·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;where they live ·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;what language they speak ·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;what their religion is ·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;what color they are ·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;who they are&nbsp;

N. 20 CHILDREN WITHOUT FAMILY

I like this right because every child has the right to be cared for and loved by a family.

I think children always need love and don't have to be left alone.

N. 23 Childrens with disabilities

I think it is very important to protect children with disabilities because they are more helpless than others. Governments should guarantee the right to an education and health. They should remove all obstacles to let them become independent and active protagonists in the community.

For me, the detention of a child under the age of 18 is wrong because if a child gets punished with jail time, he'll be upset by the lack of parents, the lack of play and freedom.
