November 20th - International Day of children rights
 



When we see a baby in a cradle and his tenderness is inspiration, the younger deprive of hope where the convulsive environment injury them and us in this century of the big developments. A world of new technologies, even more the increasing moral and climate unbalance. We wonder..What will happen with them?. May be will be possible live in the equilibrium of the necessary things and fight for challenges in an internal fight to help the usual nor unusual, the interest nor the uninterested wondering where is going o­n our internal child, the child we have birth, the child that need us.There are places they are abandoned, they are easy target, they are outraged and the probes are hidden.
 
During the Convention for the rights of children signed this day November 20th, the date the Assembly approve the Declaration for Children Rights in 1959: Right to the Education, Right to the Identity and the Family, Right to the Participation, Right to the Protection, Right to the good Health.
 
During the peak of the millennium, politics leaders made rules for the eight most important principium of the Millennium(ODM) they started reducing the poverty and the needing to stop the increasing virus of VIH and the firm conception ofthe universal primary school till year 2015, these concepts are pointed to the humankind mainly to the childhood.
 
UNICEF and governmental and private organizations around the world are working hard to protect them even that, we know in every place violence is more frequently as we think. Today children are ill treatment physically, psychically they’re abandon, suffering of Munchausen’s syndrome, most of them are punished by people who are in charge of their security.
 
The children are members of the society with less capacity of self protection, children in the school, in the orphanage,in the streets, in zone of wars, in centers of exclusion, in fields, in factories..
 
This is a disturbing and persistent situation in several parts of the globe. In each child I’m from my childhood so different to gave them love I wish to shout for the life, so I hold them: The children in Kenya, 93% are orphans shattered by VIH , the younger immigrants expulsed from the borders, the prisoners children in Paraguay, the whipped in Arabian, the killed in the Congo Republic, whose are demanded hard worksand prostitution in Africa and Thailand, the children soldiers in Sri Lanka and Colombia, like these more cases are happened , right there where the protection seams is a hard and insufficient work in this modern present time we are living. All these make us watch the existence of a isolate love into the loneliness of the children. If we o­nly see our own around without showing others that there are more children living defenseless, is possible to add in the fight with this children eyes, they need us never mind their races and traditions, they are also our children,
 
To you, my child:
Hold your heavy load
Take down the strength of the inertia
Come to the sparkling down
And wait
Sat o­n the soft seat in the grass.
