Your rights as a child

hello,
thanks for checking out my blog and contributing your thoughts.

So I wanted to start this off with some your thoughts about your rights when you were  a child. I understand it might be difficult to remember.

What do you feel like your rights were or what are some rights that you feel weren't respected. At home? in school? in society?

Did you feel like you were part of a community?  Were you able to voice your opinion on decisions?

What is the importance of the participation of a child in the community?

Children's Rights Document

Hello all! I have attached a link on the Convention of the Rights of the Child.
This will give you an idea of what I am learning at school and the premise for this whole discussion.
