Young people around the world have expressed many different feelings and expectations about the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.
What do they think about the rights proclaimed by the UN Convention? (listening/reading for detail)
“I can’t but agree that to have the right to life and protection is very important. But in my opinion, the Convention is useless. All adults do is talk; they can’t be forced to put needs of children ahead of their own.”
Gary
“I’m sure the Convention is great and will bring children more rights. For the first time children have a document with which to work together on their problems.”
Anny
“The Convention says that all children have the right to life and protection. But I’m afraid the Convention cannot do anything about war and cruelty. These are the biggest problems that concern young people.”
Ken
“The Convention doesn’t interest me; it’s too complicated. I doubt whether it can give children real rights.”
Sue
