Universal statement of human rights – Article 5- manifest indicates that "No one shall be subjected to torture or cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment." This article is critical in the current world where not only adult's faces injustices, mishandling and unnecessary torture, it is also essential to the children since the contemporary world is callous to the children. In the current error, many reports come from every corner of the world which indicates the police brutality, massacre of the innocent people, torture when the government is need of information held by many individual others. This is the issues which the article -5 is fighting to eliminate. It is an indeed unethical concern for anybody. The government included forcing information off from any person through the use of torture, punishments or cruelty. Unfortunately, this is what has been happening; not only to the adults but also the children sometimes feel this pressure. This, therefore, calls for further research to ensure that more documents are available which clarify this act for people to be aware of this right which is granted to them internationally. The article, therefore, aims at bringing to light how the section 5 on the Universal statement of human rights relates to the children in the current society.

This article is mainly based on the children protection in the prisons and any other places they are. The principal opinion which this article sells is that many children often are dealt with by the juvenile courts in many countries in the world. The article acknowledges the fact that juvenile courts or the issue of confining the children in prison for different wrongdoings are applicable in many cases in the world. However, the article further points out the fact that this force is not enough and points out the fact that these children are exposed to different punishment in this prisons, this, therefore, means that they need protection from such kind of harassments as per the universal human rights article 5. This article is very paramount in this research paper. This paper points out harassments which children undergo in the society. These are inclusive of the children trafficking, there is slavery, and there are punishments from the caretakers and many others. These are the issues which are given weight in the thesis of this paper. This article claims that these are some of the issues whose eliminations advocated by the Universal human right article 5.

This make is a more reliable source for the thesis.

Children right is something of importance in the current world. Children rights are in place to ensure that children are protected from injustices which put them at risk of being exposed to the torture either in prisons, by caretakers, teachers and parents. However, this article indicates that human rights, the children rights also inclusive, are not protected. One issue which stands out clearly in this article is that the universal human right of the article 5 is almost a forgotten law in the current world. The article explains that what this article tries to eliminate is that is being practiced in this entire world. The article is very critical in this section since it gives the thesis full and direct support. It will be used in this research to back the fact that the universal human rights of the article 5 directly relate to what happens to the children currently. It will also be used to justify that the children have for any time in the current society been exposed to all manner of cruelty and punishments which have jeopardized their rights as human being. Islam, M. A., & McPhail authored this article. These are two great scholars in this field and have vast knowledge in this area. Moreover, they have associated and have published many books in this field hence making their work credible. Lastly, this has made the book bias less through using other references and having many thoughts and opinions from many people in the article. The book was published in the year 2011 hence covers many contemporary issues in the world which concerns the children. This makes it even more credible for the thesis of this paper.
Bourdillon, M. F. (2010). Rights and wrongs of children's work . Rutgers university press.
The article majors on some of the rights things and the right stuff which children involve them on. The paper majors on those issues which they claim are right for punishment and how they should be punished. The article relates these disciplines and those and some of the problems which are punishable and how they should be done. On the contrary to the universal human rights of the article 5, this article ignores some aspect of this law. This article will be used as an opposition point to justify the extent that section 5 should be put in practices on the children in the current society.
