Children's Rights are Human Rights Too

16/8/2015

"...what I was delighted to find when I read Scripture is that God has an incredible heart for the orphan and that he’s very concerned with the plight of children. And that lines up very much with where we need to go in this discussion, which is focusing on the rights of children primarily as opposed to emphasizing the desires of adults, which tend to take centre stage when we’re talking about this issue."

...as a society, we shouldn’t normalize a family structure that requires children to lose one or both parents to be in that household."

"And adults – the onus needs to be on adults to conform to the rights of children rather than children fitting into an adult’s lifestyle."

While much of what is written in this Blog may currently appear to be counter-cultural, given our post-truth culture, it is in no way counter-human beings. I am always for people no matter what they think, do, or may have done in their past. Where I put forward ideas or debate against certain ideology, behaviour, ideas, movements, politics, I remain very much on the side of the human beings even though I may be opposed to their worldview, behaviour and politics. Such opposition is generally out of concern for the ultimate consequences of such behaviour or ideas, especially for children.
