Pathology of Attending to Children's Rights in Iran and the World

The violation of children’s rights in the developing countries are mostly rooted in poverty, while in the West moral problems and feebleness of family foundations are responsible for the rise of such problem. In spite of all these facts, the West always put pressure on the third world countries for their violation of children’s rights. Attending to children’s rights is not a matter of present societies, but in Islam also it enjoys a particular place (respecting children, banning people from any kind of violation, discrimination and misconduct against children, and persuading them to do justice to children). This work follows a qualitative approach, that is, avoiding any hypothesis making approach but follows an analytic-descriptive method in order to find out a response to the questions concerning the basis and weak points of children’s rights in Iran and the World. At the end, following a qualitative analysis it is concluded that keeping in view the particular situation of children, namely their physical and spiritual situations; they should be taken under particular protection and supervision. With respect to their weakness they should be protected in a way to be able to achieve their rights and the elder also should take this fact into account.
