COMMENTARY     

Poster
25th July 2010 		1 - Where is the UK / Great Britain on this list?

2 - Signing / ratifying is all well and good, but a lot of these countries fail abjectly in the area of enforcement. Eg in China children born out of wedlock are denied access to education / health services etc.

3 - There are contradictions within the Convention itself.
Veronika
18th November 2009 		There are two different things - the signature (the US HAS signed the Convention) and the ratification - the US and Somalia being the only two countries in the world which have not ratified.
Lili
22nd August 2009 		For the sake of time, who hasn't signed the Convention on the Rights of the Child.
arlyhelm@pacbell.net
29th September 2005 		You have the US as signatory to the UN Declaration of the Rights of the Child in 1995. This is inaccurate.
