Information is power and legal information is more so! Why not go through a book that tells you what the law is as far as children are concerned?
Written in plain language, this is a book for the general public who wish to know and understand the various legal rights pertaining to children and what the legal system can do for their welfare and evolution into happy adulthood.
The fact that laws provide the infrastructure to give protection, safety and remedies for children in difficulty, under exploitation, and under delinquency is well-known. The joy the law maker gets in making beneficial laws for children finds its zenith when more and more people become aware of them. The aim of this book is to spread that awareness.
The book deals with a variety of aspects governing the life of a child from birth to adulthood, health, education, growth and development. Besides, it discusses features of the juvenile justice system, protection of children under different laws dealing with family, marriage, adoption, child labour, inheritance, illegitimacy, custody, compulsory education, guardianship and gender protection.
