헌법상 아동권 수용을 위한 헌법개정방안

Abstract

The present constitution does not have separate regulations on child rights. As a result of economic development benefits since the revision of the Constitution in 1987, children have developed many improvements in the basic living conditions of their children, but they are exposed to new risks. As the risks of school violence, sexual violence, juvenile delinquency, games, and addiction to smartphones grow, they threaten low-action children. In addition, the system involves the use of various degrees of child abuse, alienation, or discrimination. On the other hand, children's mental and physical development tends to increase. Given this, the current constitutional provisions limiting children to the mere childcare or education of their parents are seen as more mature than before, but the protection of the basic rights of children in the face of new dangers is clear. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a new right for children when revising the Constitution. It is difficult to further discuss the rights of children when it is simply seen as objects of discrimination or protection. As they become members of respectable society after a while, it is hard to understand that they need to wait for a while. Only when the constitution regulations emphasize the nature of being a member of society and the subject of basic rights can child rights be established. In order to ensure an environment in which children can freely grow and develop in the future of our society, members of society do not simply have the right to limit their children to protection or to the care of their parents. It is reasonable to emphasize the nature of the rights body by designing child rights under an integrated model.
