The law is (not) for kids : a legal rights guide for Canadian children and teens  Cover Image Book Book

The law is (not) for kids : a legal rights guide for Canadian children and teens / Ned Lecic and Marvin A. Zuker.

Lecic, Ned, 1979- (author.). Zuker, Marvin A, (author.).

Summary:

"In this practical guide to the law for Canada's young people, Ned Lecic and Marvin Zuker provide an all-encompassing manual meant to empower and educate children and youth. The authors address questions about how rights and laws affect the lives of young people at home, at school, at work, and in their relationships and draw attention to the many ways in which a person's life can intersect with the law. Deliberately refraining from moralizing, the authors instead advocate for children and their rights and provide examples of how young people can get them enforced. In addition to being critical information for youth about citizenship, The Law is (Not) for Kids is a valuable resource for teachers, counsellors, lawyers, and all those who support youth in their encounters with the law."-- Provided by publisher.
