Background:
The Children's day is celebrated globally on 20, Nov. In 1953, It was first celebrated by the International Union of Children Welfare in Geneva. Then in the coming year, it was celebrated by United Nations, on 20th Nov. 20, Nov is the day when United Nations General Assembly aimed the declaration of the rights of children. And on the same day, The convention on the Rights of Child was signed. Therefore, till now, 20, Nov is celebrated as International Children Day.
Universal Children's Day:
Universally Children's day is celebrated on 20, Nov. But different countries celebrate children's day on different dates. Such as in central African states Children's day is celebrated on 25 Dec. In the same way in China and Azerbaijan, it is celebrated on 1 June, and in Argentina, it is celebrated on the second Sunday of August. In short people in different countries celebrate this event on different dates and days.
But it is not the matter when it is going to be celebrated, the matter is its importance. Why is it celebrated? It shows How much a nation is civilized? and How much it conceders its next generations? Because the children are the future of the world and world is that what we make it.
Anyhow, this day is celebrated for the children and their rights. The children have the right to live peacefully. In developed countries, apparently, children are safe and sound and have everything they need. But they have problems also. Most of the kids there suffer from loneliness and lack of attention by parents, as they spent their childhood in nurseries and boardings. Excessive use of alcohol in society causes trouble of alcoholic abuse. Although most people are sensible and take care of their kids while taking drugs. But some are careless about the effects on children.
In underdeveloped countries, the children's condition is worse, as most of them are deprived of their primary needs. Many kids are deprived of a typical childhood because of poverty and want. They have to labor for their family and their own living. Hence, child labor is common there. Kids work in auto workshops, shops and hotels, and many other places.
In short, I want to say that the exploitation of kid's rights should be condemned strictly. Because these children are our future.
