The Boy In The Constitution

THE BOY IN THE CONSTITUTION "I woke up from being a kid: never wake up. Sad took the mouth: laugh forever.? Miguel Hernandez. LITTLE CHILDREN HAVE THE STANDARD TREATMENT IN OUR SUPREME ORDER JUR? DICO not exist in our country too many public documents that tell us of childhood. Although the preamble to the Organic Law 1 / 1996 on the Legal Protection of Minors, partially amending the Civil Code and the Code of Civil Procedure, states: "This concern for the child to provide an adequate legal protection also transcends various international treaties ratified in recent years in Spain and, especially, of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, United Nations, November 20, 1989, ratified by Spain on November 30, 1990 , which marks the beginning of a new philosophy in relation to the child, based on a greater recognition of the role it plays in society and in demanding a greater role for it?. In the Spanish Constitution as a true reflection of what happens in the country, children have little treatment, because first come into the consideration of children, ie, without an entity of people, but taking into account their social role, from which point of view, states "the comprehensive protection of children, equal before the law regardless of their parentage, and mothers, whatever their marital status?.

Moreover, "the law for the investigation of paternity? (Art. 39.2). Another section requires parents to "provide assistance of every kind to the children born in or outside of marriage, during his minority and in other cases the law is applicable? (Art. 39.3).

Regardless of any article referred to the childhood family also appears as a subject of "protection under international agreements responsible for ensuring their rights? (Art. 39.4). Knowledge of the Constitution in general tends to be very abstract in the population so it is not surprising that only 34.3% answer whether the child is named, according to a study by the Ministry of Labour and Immigration. But we also note that this positive response is false because in the percentage quoted by 28.7% can not say that it and other issues cited as having the same rights as the elderly, right to education , right to good treatment or greater attention to children, with much effort to assimilate what we actually said. This is just a demonstration that there is a total ignorance regarding the issue but it produces a certain modesty to admit it. With regard to the Convention on the Rights of the Child could not even raise analyze the degree of knowledge on the part of the population, due to poor implementation. For this reason we selected a number of rights under the Convention, and raised the level of agreement or disagreement with each of them.

Only 49.5% of respondents are "strongly agree? with freedom of expression of children, 37.7%, with the freedom of association and only 27.7% are "strongly agree? with the child's right to be heard in legal proceedings. However, the highest level of total disagreement with these rights is only 7.2% and corresponds to the right to be heard in legal proceedings. Therefore, there is a greater or lesser degree almost unanimous agreement with such rights, which contrasts sharply with reality, and perhaps because adults do not interpret such items relate to rights that their children may be exercised by themselves, but "possibilities? that parents can mediate. Not surprisingly, the poet said: "The reality of life / Some say it's true / and others say is a lie. / And others half and half?. Francisco Arias Solis The first casualty of war is childhood.
