Rights Of The Child

In a news release from the Catholic News Agency, Pope Benedict XVI has sent a telegram to the International Catholic Child Bureau (BICE) urging, "A new mobilization on behalf of children" initiated by the United Nations in Geneva."

The telegram references the UN Convention Rights Of The Child and says, "Twenty years after it's ratification, there is an urgent need for it to be implemented to the full, given the new challenges of the modern world."

Oh No! This UN Convention Rights Of The Child, takes away all parental rights, and will break apart families around the world. The bill stops all discipline from a parent. It goes on to state, that children do not have to go to Church if they don't want to. The Pope is calling on the International community to see that the principles outlined in the Convention, are put into practice.

The Holy Father further stressed, "Respecting the inviolable dignity and rights of children, of recognizing the fundamental educational mission of the family, and of a stable social environment capable of favoring the physical, cultural and moral development of all children. The Pope further continued by calling on BICE to work generously for a correct application of the Convention, and for the construction of a future of hope, security and happiness for the children of our world." 

Please say it isn't so. I can't believe the Holy Father could be so mis-informed on the true depths of family destruction, which the implementation of this "Right" will bring about.  Maybe we will have a Village raising our children.
