Children’s Right to an Open Future

One of the spiritual rights of children is the right to an open and free future, which scientists have put forward in various expressions. This paper aims to examine the various dimensions of the right and to justify it in theories of law. It, therefore, seeks to answer the question "What is the concept and basis of justifying the right to an open future and what are the criticisms of it? Everything that is expressed as the right to an open future or other titles seems to refer to the same right to individual freedom and independence that has been taken as a right within the framework of determinism which is basically a corrupt idea that cannot be the correct basis for creating and enforcing the right. Hence, with this theory, the enforcement and implementation of the right cannot be guaranteed. Moreover, this right in the Islamic view has no rational and defensible basis, because Islam basically prevents the conflict between the rights of children and parents as much as possible by enacting the correct laws, and finally, in case of conflict, it offers solutions to resolve it. In addition, this right is based on a set of probabilities that are not provable.
