If we have children, our children should be safe and get a chance to be happy. They shouldn´t be spoiled or entitled, nobody should be. We shouldn´t be allowed to breed indefinitely, there should be some limitation. Children should have some say in government

Children are basically people who are in need of some assistance. That´s it. They are not really special. You should treat them like other people. They deserve respect, the do not need to get special treatment. There should be no other restrictions or additions to their basic freedoms or rights.

So like with other people: You cannot hit them, you don´t own them. They cannot be your slaves. You cannot make them be where they don´t want to be (not even in school)

But you can let them work for you, if they want, unless they rely on you in any way.

You can touch them with their consent, but NOT sexually if they rely on you in any way or the age difference is too big, or they don´t understand what is going on. You cannot touch them anywhere or hurt them, without consent, like normal people..

Pedophilia and consent Age difference in consent should not be a fixed age, like 16 or 12, there isn´t one age when somebody is a grown up. This causes a 17 year old having a 16 year old partner to be classified as pedofilia. If we can divide the age to form a X (1.5?), this is wrong. So a 4 year old and an 8 year old, not acceptable. A 12 year old and a 18 year old not acceptible. But two twelve year olds should be able to do anything they want as long as they are consenting.

We should also look at cognitive capability: consent must mean you understand what you are consenting to.

If you want something from kids (like obedience), you should find a non-violent way to get it.

Anything else?
