I’ve recently introduced a picture book into my family’s reading time called “I Have the Right to Be a Child” by Alain Serres. With beautiful simplicity, the book provides the author’s interpretation of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. The Convention includes things like rights to education, jämställdhet, näring, hälsovård, free speech, freedom from child labor, säkerhet, etc. För barn, the book is a conversation starter about human rights. We talked a lot about the question, “What are rights and what are privileges?” For adults, the book is a reminder that these concepts really are not that complicated. It may be complicated in the implementation of granting rights, but when the rights themselves are asserted in the simple language of the children the Convention seeks to protect, it all becomes much more clear. This is probably the first time my kids saw human rights presented in a way that was meaningful to them. In American museums and text books, the right to vote for women and people of color seems faraway and a “done deal.” They don’t think of those rights as things we continually need to address here and in other countries. My children often help me advocate to give children in developing countries access to school and vaccines, but the language of “rättigheter” isn’t always included in those kinds of discussions. My youngest really latched on to the page that said, “I have the right to express myself completely freely, even if it doesn’t always please my dad, and to say exactly how I feel, even if it doesn’t always please my mom.” We have a lively ongoing debate about how that plays out. If she has the right to express herself completely freely, how might that compete with my perceived right not to be disrespected in my own home or the rights of her other friends and family members? It might be surprising to Americans to learn that while 194 states in the world have agreed to the Convention, den US-. has not officially ratified it. I själva verket, every member of the United Nations except Somalia, Förenta staterna, and South Sudan are party to the Convention, having agreed to change or make laws and to develop practices and programs to support it. The U.S. has signed to show support, but hasn’t “ratified” den. Ratification requires being bound by international law and having to report regularly to the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child, which monitors compliance. Why hasn’t the U.S. ratified? Katie Jay – author of the “Children Deserve Families” blog told me that recognizing that children have a right to a safe and secure permanent family is cutting edge human rights law. The idealistic part of me scoffs at that, säger; “Verkligen? Cutting edge? To provide security, säkerhet, and nourishment to children is cutting edge?” But the lobbyist part of me knows that it can sometimes be a tricky thing for a country to formally declare something as a “human right.” Because once you officially do that, then you have to do something about it…eller ställas till svars av en internationell myndighet och eventuellt ge upp din moraliska marken om du då ses som ett land som inte lever upp till sina egna normer. Tyvärr, med utgångspunkt från en amerikansk medborgare som har sett vårt beteende på internationella miljöavtal med bestörtning, Jag kan säga att amerikaner i allmänhet inte gillar tanken på internationell myndighet som håller oss ansvariga för vad som helst. Har ditt land ratificerat konventionen? Ta en titt på denna parafrase lista med rättigheter för barn från boken och överväga vilka av dem du tycker är rättigheter eller privilegier. Är alla dessa rättigheter? Vad skulle bli konsekvenserna för ditt land för att verkligen ge denna rätt i ditt land? Internationellt? What benefits or problems do you see that could arise if the world embraced the Convention wholeheartedly? - I have the right to a first name, a last name, a family, and a country that I can call my home. - I have the right to have enough food to eat and water to drink. - I have the right to live under a roof, to be warm, but not too hot, not to be poor and to have just enough of what I need, not more. - I have the right to be cured with the best medicines that were ever invented. - I have the right to go to school without having to pay. - I have the same rights whether I am a girl or a boy. - I have exactly the same right to be respected whether I am black or white, small or big, rich or poor, born here or somewhere else. - I have the right to be helped by my parents, mina vänner, and my country if my body doesn’t work as well as other children’s. - I have the right to be free from any kind of violence, and no one has the right to take advantage of me because I am a child. - I have the right to go to school and refuse to go to work. - I have the right to be protected by adults and to be sheltered from disasters - I have the right never to experience war or weapons. - I have the right to breathe clean air. - I have the right to play, to create, to imagine, and also to have friends. - I have the right to learn about friendship, peace and respect for our planet. - I have the right to express myself completely freely.

Tá mé isteach le déanaí leabhar pictiúr i am léitheoireachta mo theaghlach ar a dtugtar “An bhfuil mé ar an gCeart chun bheith ina Linbh” le Alain Serres. Le simplíocht álainn, Soláthraíonn an leabhar an t-údar léiriú na Coinbhinsiún na Náisiún Aontaithe um Chearta an Linbh. Áirítear ar an gCoinbhinsiún rudaí cosúil le cearta oideachais, comhionannas inscne, cothaithe, cúram sláinte, chaint saor in aisce, saoirse ó saothar leanaí, sábháilteacht, srl. Do na páistí, Is é an leabhar tosaithe comhrá faoi chearta an duine. Labhair muid a lán faoi an gceist, “Cad iad na cearta agus cad iad na pribhléidí?” Do dhaoine fásta, Is é an leabhar i gcuimhne nach bhfuil na coincheapa i ndáiríre go casta. D'fhéadfadh sé a bheith casta i gcur i bhfeidhm lenar deonaíodh cearta, ach nuair a cearta iad féin Dhearbhaigh sa teanga simplí de na páistí ag iarraidh an Coinbhinsiún a chosaint, bíonn sé go léir i bhfad níos soiléire. Is dócha go bhfuil an chéad uair mo chuid páistí a chonaic chearta an duine i láthair ar bhealach a bhí brí dóibh. I músaeim Mheiriceá agus leabhair téacs, Dealraíonn an ceart chun vótáil do mhná agus do dhaoine den dath i gcéin agus “go leor déanta.” Ní cheapann siad de na cearta sin mar rudaí is gá dúinn i gcónaí chun aghaidh a thabhairt anseo agus i dtíortha eile. Mo leanaí cabhrú go minic abhcóide liom do leanaí i dtíortha i mbéal forbartha a thabhairt rochtain ar scoil agus vacsaíní, ach an teanga “cearta” nach bhfuil san áireamh i gcónaí i na cineálacha sin plé. Mo óige latched i ndáiríre ar aghaidh go dtí an leathanach a dúirt, “Tá sé de cheart féin a chur in iúl go hiomlán faoi shaoirse mé, fiú amháin más rud é nach ndéanann sé i gcónaí le do thoil mo dhaid, agus a rá go díreach conas a bhraitheann mé, fiú amháin más rud é nach ndéanann sé do thoil i gcónaí ar mo mam.” Tá díospóireacht leanúnach bríomhar faoi conas go n-imríonn amach. Má tá an ceart chun í féin a chur in iúl go hiomlán faoi shaoirse sí, conas a d'fhéadfadh dul san iomaíocht le mo fheictear ceart chun nach ndéanfar disrespected i mo theach féin nó ar chearta a cuid cairde agus baill teaghlaigh eile? D'fhéadfadh go mbeadh sé iontas go Meiriceánaigh a fhoghlaim go cé go 194 stáit ar fud an domhain tar éis comhaontú leis an gCoinbhinsiún, an U.S. Níor dhaingnigh go hoifigiúil é. Go deimhin, gach ball de na Náisiúin Aontaithe, ach amháin tSomáil, na Stáit Aontaithe, agus tá tSúdáin Theas páirtí sa Choinbhinsiún, gur aontaigh an athrú nó a chur ar dhlíthe agus ar chleachtais agus cláir a fhorbairt chun tacaíocht a thabhairt dó. An U.S. shínigh tacaíocht a thaispeáint, ach nach bhfuil “Dhaingnigh” sé. Éilíonn Daingniú atá faoi cheangal ag dlí idirnáisiúnta agus ag tuairisciú go rialta don Choiste na NA ar Chearta an Linbh, a dhéanann monatóireacht ar chomhlíonadh. Cén fáth nach bhfuil an U.S. Dhaingnigh? Katie Jay – údar an “Tuillte Leanaí Teaghlaigh” bhlag dúradh liom go bhfuil a aithint go bhfuil sé de cheart teaghlach buan sábháilte agus slán do leanaí ceannródaíoch dlí chearta an duine. An chuid idealistic de dom scoffs ag an, ag rá; “Tá sé an? Imeall Gearradh? Slándála a chur ar fáil, sábháilteacht, agus tá nourishment do leanaí ceannródaíoch?” Ach a fhios ag an chuid stocaire de dom gur féidir é a uaireanta rud tricky do thír a dhearbhú go foirmiúil rud éigin mar “ceart daonna.” Mar gheall ar aon uair amháin leat a dhéanamh go hoifigiúil go, ansin caithfidh tú a rud éigin a dhéanamh faoi…nó a bheith cuntasach ag údarás idirnáisiúnta agus b'fhéidir a thabhairt suas do talamh ard morálta má tá tú ag feiceáil ansin mar thír nach beo suas go dtí a chaighdeáin féin. Faraor, ó thaobh an saoránach Meiriceánach a faire ár n-iompar ar comhaontuithe comhshaoil idirnáisiúnta le dismay, Is féidir liom a insint duit go bhfuil Meiriceánaigh go ginearálta nach bhfuil cosúil leis an smaoineamh údarás idirnáisiúnta ghabháltais cuntasach linn le haghaidh díreach faoi aon rud. An bhfuil do thír Dhaingnigh an Coinbhinsiún? A chur le breathnú ar an liosta seo paraphrased ceart do pháistí ón leabhar agus a mheas cé acu de acu a cheapann tú go bhfuil na cearta nó na pribhléidí. An bhfuil gach ceann acu ar chearta? Cad iad na ramifications do do thír a dheonú go fírinneach go ceart i do thír féin? HIdirnáisiúnta? Cad iad na sochair nó fadhbanna a fheiceann tú d'fhéadfadh teacht chun cinn mura glactha ar fud an domhain an Choinbhinsiúin ó chroí? - Tá sé de cheart ag an chéad ainm agam, ainm seo caite, teaghlach, agus tír gur féidir liom glaoch ar mo bhaile. - Tá sé de cheart go mbeadh go leor bia a ithe agus uisce a ól mé. - Tá an ceart chun cónaí faoi dhíon mé, a bheith te, ach ní ró-te, gan a bheith bocht agus go bhfuil díreach go leor ar cad is gá dom, nach bhfuil níos mó. - Tá sé de cheart a leigheas leis na leigheasanna is fearr a bhí invented riamh mé. - Tá an ceart chun dul ar scoil gan féachaint d'íoc mé. - Tá mé na cearta céanna, cibé acu Tá mé cailín nó buachaill. - Tá díreach mar an ceart céanna atá le hurramú cibé an bhfuil mé dubh nó bán mé, bheag nó a mhór, saibhir nó bochta, rugadh anseo nó áit éigin eile. - Tá sé de cheart a chabhraigh le mo thuismitheoirí mé, mo chairde, agus mo thír más rud é nach bhfuil mo chorp ag obair chomh maith le leanaí eile. - Tá an ceart chun a bheith saor ó aon chineál foréigin mé, and no one has the right to take advantage of me because I am a child. - I have the right to go to school and refuse to go to work. - I have the right to be protected by adults and to be sheltered from disasters - I have the right never to experience war or weapons. - I have the right to breathe clean air. - I have the right to play, to create, to imagine, and also to have friends. - I have the right to learn about friendship, peace and respect for our planet. - Tá sé de cheart féin a chur in iúl go hiomlán faoi shaoirse mé.
