about

Every child has the right to: know his or her parents, know where his or her parents are, maintain personal relationships with his or her parents, and have direct contact with his or her parents on a regular basis.

Every child has the right to be raised by his or her parents unless the child is taken away from them because his or her parents neglect the child or abuse the child.

When parents are unwilling or unable to protect and care for a child, the child has the right to be protected and cared for by other capable, caring adults.

lyrics

What greater love
Than a father for his daughter?
Than a mother for her son?
It just can't be won

Yet this greater love
Is sometimes broken
Between a father and his daughter
Between a mother and her son
Yeah, this greater love
Is sometimes undone
When there's so much confusion
Sometimes there's so much confusion

Yeah, this greater love
Is something we have a right to
Even if the one's who gave birth to you
Can't give it to you

You deserve to be loved
And cared for, so cared for
You deserve to be honored
And protected, so protected, yeah

You deserve to be loved
And cared for, so cared for
You deserve to be honored
And protected, so protected, yeah

You deserve be loved
And cherished, so cherished
You deserve to be honored
So honored, So honored

What greater love
Than a mother for her daughter?
Than a father for his son?
It just can't be won

Yet this greater love
Is sometimes broken
Between a mother and her daughter
Between a father and his son

Yet this greater love
Is sometimes undone
When there's so much confusion
Sometimes there's so much confusion

Yet this greater love
Is something you have a right to
Even if the ones who gave birth to you
Can't give it to you

You should be loved
You can be loved
You will be loved
Seek those who will love you

You should be loved
Deserve to be loved
You will be loved
Seek those who will love you

You should be loved
Deserve to be loved
You will be loved
Seek those who will love you
