Family & Relationships

It is the parents’ responsibility to create a family environment in which their child can experience respect and appreciation, love and a sense of security, as well as support and a voice in family matters.  

Why are children’s rights necessary? And what do they mean for parenting? Perhaps you’ve already given this some thought when you first learned about the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.  

But what rights do children actually have? In short, one could say: They describe everything children need to grow up well and healthily. You can read here about what these rights are in detail and what significance they have in child-rearing.  

By the way, the term “children” in the Convention on the Rights of the Child refers to all people under the age of 18, including adolescents. As parents, you play a central role in your child’s development and are therefore also responsible for doing everything you can to guide your child happily into adulthood.
