Right of the Children and Adolescent


1. Human rights are indispensable to all human beings, rich and poor, strong and weak, male and female, of all races and religions for us to live on the earth as a "real" human. There are many cases shown in the news that how important human rights are. For instance, some parents maltreat their children physically merely because of thinking they are their guardians so they can do anything on them. However. human rights come first before parental authority. Thus, I describe human rights as the utmost right which should be observed prior to anything.

2. Right to education and Right to freedom of thought. To protect these two rights as an educator, I must exert my endeavor into specializing in my field of study, so that I will be able to instruct my students with confidence and perfection. Moreover, I should be careful with being biased on one perspective, otherwise it will plant another one-sided thought in minds of my future students.

3.RA 9344 - the Act Establishing a Comprehensive Juvenile Justice and Welfare System.
RA 7610 - The Special Protection of Children Against Child Abuse
RA 7658 - An Act Prohibiting the Employment of Children Below 15 Years of Age
RA 8049 - An Act Regulating Hazing and Other Forms of Initiation
RA 8353 - Anti-Rape law of 1997

Republic Act NO. 9344, 7610, 8049, and 8353 aims at protection of the growth and development of the adolescent. If RA 9344, 7610, 7658 does not exist, children will spend the rest of their live in jail without any chances given to start new lives and harshly abused in sexual and laborious ways under no protection of the law.
