Cartoons for Child's Rights: "Self-Expression" (Chile)

UNICEF has just released the 'Top 10 Cartoons for Children's Rights', as selected by polling broadcasters and communicators, to commemorate the 15th anniversary of the Convention on the Rights of the Child.

Cartoons for Children's Rights is a UNICEF broadcast initiative that aims to inform people around the world about children's rights. So far, the effort has forged partnerships with many well-known animation studios that have developed more than 80 half-minute public service announcements (PSAs).

Each PSA illustrates a right described in the global rights treaty, such as 'Freedom from Child Labour' or 'Protection from Neglect'. All the spots are non-verbal, in order to get the rights message across to everyone, regardless of language.

nice video. Yeah everyone should be given the chance to express what they want and not be shadowed by what others wants.

earthbyapril: Article 19 provides that family and parents do have the right and responsbility to take care of the child. To say that this convention directly supersides parental authority is a bold-faced lie

While UNICEF does great things for kids, this video strays to the extreme. It leans toward what the Convention for the Rights of the Child advocates - the child is as right as any adult - not so, my friends. They need and deserve guidance and instruction! UNICEF's own videos display this! Maybe this child said she was building a bench! Maybe the parents showed her principles of weight-bearing! It is ridiculous to imply that a child always needs to do everything he wants in order to be healthy.
