| Message | "The child is entitled to receive education, which shall be free and compulsory" Compulsory education is a no-no. "peace and universal brotherhood, and in full consciousness that his or her energy and talents should be devoted to the service of his or her fellow men." This is mainly semantics, but universal brotherhood? Service of fellow men? I'm not sure we want kids to embrace these principles. Many people may want to raise their children so that they want to service themselves, not others. |

| Message | I mean the universal brotherhood is ok I guess, but really - "full conciousness that his or her energy and talents should be devoted to the service of his or her fellow men" is a partisan political position, which shouldn't be taught as infallible truth. |

| Message | "The child is entitled to receive education, which shall be free and compulsory" It isnt possible to have free education. This whole treaty is just a load of socialist crap which is rewording things with clear mistruths in order to hide what they're ACTUALLY doing, which is pushing all power into the hands of the state. |
