"The child shall enjoy special protection, and shall be given opportunities and services, by law and by other means, to enable him/her to develop physically, mentally, morally, spiritually, and socially in a healthy and normal manner and in conditions of freedom and dignity."
However, there is a sour taste knowing that two countries have not ratified it, they are: the United States and Somalia.
The other 196 member countries of the United Nations ratified the mandate, which came into force in September 1990.
Opponents argue that ratification would undermine US sovereignty by giving the United Nations authority to determine the best interests of American children. Some are also concerned that the Convention on the Rights of the Child may interfere with the private lives of families, particularly the rights of parents to educate or discipline their children.
Given these circumstances, there are issues in the United States that many children suffer from on a daily basis, due to family or economic consequences.
However, there are local, state, and federal entities that provide assistance and security for them.
Among the most important rights of the child are: the right to health, education, family life, play and recreation, with an adequate standard of living and to be protected against abuse and harm. The rights of children cover their age-appropriate and developmental needs that change over time as the child grows.
