Rights of a child
Presidential Decree No. 603
“Child and Youth Welfare Code”
Article 3 Rights of a Child
All children shall be entitled to the rights herein set forth without distinction as to legitimacy or
illegitimacy, sex, social status, religion, political antecedents, and other factors.

The following are the rights of the child—and what adults can do
to uphold them.
1. Every child has the right to be born well.
It is the responsibility of the parents to make sure they can provide a safe environment for
their unborn child. This includes proper medical attention and care from conception, birth,
and throughout childhood years in a newborn services unit or pediatric center.
2. Every child has the right to a wholesome family life.
The child’s first learning environment and teachers are their home and family. They are
entitled to be a part of a loving family that will instill ethical values and morals in them.
3. Every child has the right to education.
In an ideal world, every child should have the means to go to a classroom and have access to
books and learning materials that can enrich their intelligence and skills.
4. Every child has the right to good governance.
Children also have a right to be born under the presence of good governance that can inspire
them to become a helpful and active citizen. This doesn’t necessarily mean they have to get
involved with politics but rather have an interest in being involved in political discussions for
the betterment of their country.
5. Every child has the right to freedom and peace.
Last but not the least, every child is entitled to do whatever they want in their lives, so long as
it contributes to the peace and betterment of the communities they are a part of.
6. Every child has the right to be raised well and become contributing members of society.
By raising them in a safe and loving environment, parents and guardians can shape the
personalities of their young to be useful and contributing members of their respective
communities when they grow older.
7. Every child has the right to basic needs.
The four basic needs of people outlined in the law are as follows: a balanced diet, adequate
clothing, sufficient shelter, and proper healthcare. This also includes any other requirements
to lead a healthy and active life.

Parents, guardians, and all adults should be vigilant in protecting and

advocating for the rights of children.
Let’s continue to be great examples to kids and be conscious of our actions in
making the Philippines a safe environment for them to take care of and pass on
to future generations!
