When placing children in institutional or residential care, there is the risk of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, and other internationally recognized human rights being violated. These conventions state that parents or, when applicable, the extended family or legal guardians have the primary responsibility to take care of, support and guide the child in the child’s best interest. When a child is institutionalized, often without any legal contract or documentation, the parents or guardians forgo their rights and responsibility. |
