Historically, children have been and are still the most oppressed, exploited and victimized group of human beings on the planet. Children remain the most voiceless and the most discriminated against group of people in all societies. While every adult group has fought for and won basic human rights protections and freedoms (USA), children remain the only group of human beings without the same rights to equality, respect, protection from bodily harm and freedom of speech. In an era in history when social injustices are decried and combated aggressively, it is unthinkable that we have stopped short of fully including children when we fight for and establish basic human rights protections for all people. The purpose of this web site is to educate the public about the overlooked ways in which children’s human rights are not protected; how these abuses have contributed to dysfunction in society; and how we can become true advocates for kids.
