IF you want to Vote Yes Please join The
region called Government Endorse me then stay our leave as you please.

Here is the Propsal-

Principle 1

The child shall enjoy all the rights set forth in this Declaration. Every child, without any exception whatsoever, shall be entitled to these rights, without distinction or discrimination on account of race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status, whether of himself or of his family.

Principle 2

The child shall enjoy special protection, and shall be given opportunities and facilities, by law and by other means, to enable him to develop physically, mentally, morally, spiritually and socially in a healthy and normal manner and in conditions of freedom and dignity. In the enactment of laws for this purpose, the best interests of the child shall be the paramount consideration.

Principle 3

The child shall be entitled from his birth to a name and a nationality.

Principle 4

The child shall enjoy the benefits of social security. He shall be entitled to grow and develop in health; to this end, special care and protection shall be provided both to him and to his mother, including adequate pre-natal and post-natal care. The child shall have the right to adequate nutrition, housing, recreation and medical services.

Principle 5

The child who is physically, mentally or socially handicapped shall be given the special treatment, education and care required by his particular condition.

Principle 6

The child, for the full and harmonious development of his personality, needs love and understanding. He shall, wherever possible, grow up in the care and under the responsibility of his parents, and, in any case, in an atmosphere of affection and of moral and material security; a child of tender years shall not, save in exceptional circumstances, be separated from his mother. Society and the public authorities shall have the duty to extend particular care to children without a family and to those without adequate means of support. Payment of State and other assistance towards the maintenance of children of large families is desirable.

Principle 7

The child is entitled to receive education, which shall be free and compulsory, at least in the elementary stages. He shall be given an education which will promote his general culture and enable him, on a basis of equal opportunity, to develop his abilities, his individual judgement, and his sense of moral and social responsibility, and to become a useful member of society.

The best interests of the child shall be the guiding principle of those responsible for his education and guidance; that responsibility lies in the first place with his parents.

The child shall have full opportunity for play and recreation, which should be directed to the same purposes as education; society and the public authorities shall endeavour to promote the enjoyment of this right.

Principle 8

The child shall in all circumstances be among the first to receive protection and relief.

Principle 9

The child shall be protected against all forms of neglect, cruelty and exploitation. He shall not be the subject of traffic, in any form.

The child shall not be admitted to employment before an appropriate minimum age; he shall in no case be caused or permitted to engage in any occupation or employment which would prejudice his health or education, or interfere with his physical, mental or moral development.

Principle 10

The child shall be protected from practices which may foster racial, religious and any other form of discrimination. He shall be brought up in a spirit of understanding, tolerance, friendship among peoples, peace and universal brotherhood, and in full consciousness that his energy and talents should be devoted to the service of his fellow men.

Have you read through the passed legislation on the subject of children's rights (see multiple links above) and the rules?

Pay particular attention to the rule against plagiarism.

This rant is assuming that Cluich is sure it's direct plagiarism. If it's not, I'll laser his Death Star to ribbons.


Don't you even DARE think about altering a few words and reposting that. That's still plagiarism. It's ok to use the base idea, but you absolutely cannot use the original text, even if you tweak it somewhat. Write your own bloody proposal. You do that, and I'll irritate you for the rest of time.

That makes you a hack. And not the good, usually-friendly, modly kind.

Do the rules state outright that plagiarism is deleted? If so, excellent. As most are aware, I despise the misuse of English and communication in general, especially written. Plagiarism is another plague upon those concepts. As such, if you post that, I look forward to its destruction.

My apologies to Cluich and thanks to OMGTKK. I didn't read the line where the original source was given (Post 6).

OOC: As a former journalist (currently out of work and looking to change careers), I'm not about to call someone on plagiarism unless I'm sure that's what it is. ;)

And thank you, Kenny, for posting that link.

Setting aside issues of plagerism, this couldn't work the way the NS UN is set up anyway...

Principle 3

The child shall be entitled from his birth to a name and a nationality.There is no category for this. Maybe Human Rights, I suppose.

Principle 4

The child shall enjoy the benefits of social security. He shall be entitled to grow and develop in health; to this end, special care and protection shall be provided both to him and to his mother, including adequate pre-natal and post-natal care. The child shall have the right to adequate nutrition, housing, recreation and medical services.This is Social Justice.

Principle 5

The child who is physically, mentally or socially handicapped shall be given the special treatment, education and care required by his particular condition.This is Social Justice and Education and in violation of an existing Resolution.

Principle 6

The child, for the full and harmonious development of his personality, needs love and understanding. He shall, wherever possible, grow up in the care and under the responsibility of his parents, and, in any case, in an atmosphere of affection and of moral and material security; a child of tender years shall not, save in exceptional circumstances, be separated from his mother. Society and the public authorities shall have the duty to extend particular care to children without a family and to those without adequate means of support. Payment of State and other assistance towards the maintenance of children of large families is desirable.Social Justice

Principle 7

The child is entitled to receive education, which shall be free and compulsory, at least in the elementary stages. He shall be given an education which will promote his general culture and enable him, on a basis of equal opportunity, to develop his abilities, his individual judgement, and his sense of moral and social responsibility, and to become a useful member of society.

The best interests of the child shall be the guiding principle of those responsible for his education and guidance; that responsibility lies in the first place with his parents.

The child shall have full opportunity for play and recreation, which should be directed to the same purposes as education; society and the public authorities shall endeavour to promote the enjoyment of this right.Fluff, Education, and contradictory.

Principle 8

The child shall in all circumstances be among the first to receive protection and relief.Human Rights.

Principle 9

The child shall be protected against all forms of neglect, cruelty and exploitation. He shall not be the subject of traffic, in any form.

The child shall not be admitted to employment before an appropriate minimum age; he shall in no case be caused or permitted to engage in any occupation or employment which would prejudice his health or education, or interfere with his physical, mental or moral development.Human Rights, duplication.

IS this a good Proposal or what?No, it's not. It spans multiple categories, duplicates some laws, contradicts others, and is 90% fluff that has no actionable clauses. Of course, this is the kind of fuzzy-headed, feel-good/do-nothing nonsense I've come to expect from the UN.
