“No guarantees come with children's liberation. But neither the promise of great benefits to all nor the prediction of great difficulties ahead can serve as the reason for granting or denying rights to children. Rights will be granted because without them children are incapacitated, oppressed, and abused.” ChildrenReasonRightsPromiseBenefitsDifficultyOppressionGrantedLiberationGuaranteesOppressedPredictionsAbused Children Author:Richard Farson
“Most of us tend to view childhood as a time of carefree pleasure. Those of us who have looked at the real condition of children in America, however, see a very different picture-one in which children are victims of terrible discrimination, prejudice, and abuse. They need protection. But the protection they need most is to have the protection of civil rights, so that they can be regarded as full persons under the law.” NeedsChildrenPersonsDifferentRealAmericaLawPleasureViewsRightsChildhoodConditionsTerribleAbusePrejudiceVictimProtectionDiscriminationCivil RightsCarefree Author:Richard Farson
