Hey Michael.
No matter if you say Children's Rights or Human Rights, the problem
pointed out by leonard still remains the same.
You can't use the phrase "Human Rights" for democratic education in
public relations, cause its very much to offensive and would lead to
massive misunterstanding. Although your point is clear and i would be
disposed to accept what you "mean", your words wont have that message
for many people "out there". Maybe one may refer to some issues of
Human Rights, but Human Rights as such is, in public,not to be used in
terms of democratic education - in order to make those people in
charge listen to what you are saying. You would seem very radical and
people in charge don't really want to talk to radical organisations.
Though that should not hinder you from talking free, cause that's the
idea behind all that we are talking about, remember: Human Rights, as
used in the news today (whatsoever kind of media) is more linked to
countries like China, or the never ending civil wars in Africa etc.
People than would point out, that children in modern industrialized
countries have all Human Rights that children in China or elsewhere
have need of and I think at this point the discussion would be very
much over, cause that phrase "Human Rights" is a MUCH to sensitive
topic!
Could you try to find different words to express the same? Paraphrase
it, whatever.
