Changemakers with Clare Mckenna
Clare McKenna and I talk about the effect of a broken home on a child. We talk about the UN Convention on the Rights of a Child which recognises childhood as a special, protected time, in which children must be allowed to grow, learn, play, develop and flourish with dignity. It goes on to cite the importance of parents and family in this protection and that children have a right to family life.
