The Rights of our Children

As Parents sometimes we forget that our children are growing and expanding their horizons. For many parents like us, parenting is the most important stage in our siblings lives. It gives them a feeling of satisfaction and fulfillment. Our feelings sometimes result to selfishness and inability to let go of our children. We have the tendency to become overly protective. We do not allow our children to learn from their mistakes. We hate to see our children make their own decisions for fear that such decisions will only disappoint them. Although we know that love is a feeling that binds together our family members. A family that recognizes and respects one another, even if we sometimes see things quite differently, is united by understanding and affection.
Any claim that is due to a person is known as right. These rights are embodied in the 1987 Constitution of the Philippines, article XV, Section 3. It states that '' The state shall defend they right of children to assistance, including proper care and nutrition and special protection from all forms of neglect, abuse, cruelty, exploitation and other conditions prejudicial to their development. The rights of children are summarized as the right to:

1.an education commensurate with his abilities and to the development of his skills for the improvement of his capability for service to himself and his fellowmen;
