Nowadays, the rights of young people are not respected. What solutions can you suggest?

In most countries around the world,

children

are recognised as persons by law.

However

, because

children

do not have the same access to power as adults, they lack the means to defend their

rights

. It is

therefore

important that adults recognise the

rights

of young

people

. Some argue that

this

is uniquely the duty of parents. In my view,

society

as a whole must bear some of

this

responsibility. In

I will outline three measures that can be taken to safeguard the

rights

of young

people

can ensure that its policies take the interests of

children

into account. It could,

for example

, appoint a

's commissioner to scrutinise new legislation for compliance with frameworks

such

as the UN Convention on the

Rights

of the Child.

This

would ensure that young

people

are continuously represented in the halls of power.

Secondly

are just one example of what could be done. One

such

service in the UK, Childline, answered over 700,000 calls

last

year, suggesting a strong need for

this

kind of help. A third possible measure is to ensure that information about

children

's

rights

is widely disseminated through schools,

for example

, and the mass media.

Children

who are well-informed about their

rights

are in a better position to seek help to defend them. In short,

society

has an obligation to look after young

people

. Doing so can have benefits for all. Young

people

who have felt valued by

society

are more likely to recognise the value of

society

and behave

accordingly
