Everyone in the world has human rights, including you. And everyone under 18 has a human rights law that’s just for them. It’s called the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, or UNCRC.
The UNCRC is divided into a lot of parts called articles. Each of these articles says something different about your human rights.
Some of the rights these articles talk about are:
- your human right to have opinions adults take seriously,
- your human right for adults to think about what’s best for you, and
- your human right to play, rest and relax.
No one can take your rights away. They don’t depend on responsibilities.
