A woman just called into the Glenn Beck radio program, completely freaked out over this.

I've never heard of it. As nice as it sounds, it looks to be indoctrination of our young.

Has anyone looked into this?

According to the woman caller, there is all kinds of sneaky left wing language in there, in regard to sex education, etc.

You have the right to love and understanding, preferably from parents and family, but from the government where these cannot help.

Huh?

Just out of curiosity, are the Islamic countries still members of the UN. Because this doesn't sound like anything they'd sign onto.

It appears as if they have, with conditions.

I know these guys don't like Wiki, but..............

IranIslamic Republic of Iran has adhered to the convention on 1991 and ratified it in the Parliament in 1994. Iran, however, has made the following reservation "If the text of the Convention is or becomes incompatible with the domestic laws and Islamic standards at any time or in any case, the Government of the Islamic Republic shall not abide by it.

Ahhh, OK, got it. They'll sign on to the fancy treaty; but we're not having any of that weird Western s**t in Iran! 

You have the special right to grow up and to develop physically and spiritually in a healthy and normal way, free and with dignity.

They must have an interesting concept of what is meant by "free and with dignity".

Every child in this country as of this minute owes $50,000 to pay for our government's debts. By they time they reach adulthood, the Federal Government will confiscate over half of their wages to pay for its ever growing spending habit! State and local government may increase the total tax burden of each American to nearly 75% of what they earn.

They will be virtual slaves!

"Free and with Dignity" indeed!
