Cad a chiallaíonn sé seo?

De réir Airteagal 19 de CNACL caithfidh an Stát leanaí a chosaint ó gach cineál díobhála agus dúshaothraithe. Is faoin rialtas atá sé tú a chosaint ó chásanna contúirteacha amhail mí-úsáid, fuadach nó a bheith páirteach i dtrádáil drugaí.

Conas a chosnaítear an ceart sin in Éirinn?

The Children’s First Act 2015 says that protecting children is everyone’s responsibility. Any adult working with children, such as teachers, social workers and doctors, have to keep children safe and if they have any concerns, they must report this to the Gardaí or to TUSLA

Section 42A of the Irish constitution states that if a child is not safe living with their family, they have the right to be cared for by someone else. If you are living with a foster family or in a residential home, Tusla have to make sure it is a safe, good place for you to be.

Cad ba cheart dom a dhéanamh mura mbraitheann mé sábháilte?

Mura mbraitheann tú sábháilte sa bhaile, ar scoil, i do cheantar féin nó ag am ar bith eile, ba cheart duit labhairt le do thuismitheoirí, le do mhúinteoirí nó le duine fásta iontaofa eile. Is féidir leat an scéal a thuairisciú do na Gardaí freisin, agus ba cheart dóibh glacadh leat i ndáiríre. Is féidir leat labhairt le TUSLA freisin – oibríonn siad i gcomhar le teaghlaigh agus leis na Gardaí d’fhonn leanaí a chosaint ar dhochar.

Mura bhfuil éinne thart ort a bhfuil muinín agat as, is féidir leat glaoch a chur ar Childline (seirbhís atá á reáchtáil ag an ISPCC), áit a gcuirtear spás sábháilte ar fáil duit chun labhairt.

An bhfuil an ceart sin ag gach leanbh in Éirinn?

While Ireland is generally considered a safe country for children to grow up in, unfortunately some children are not safe in their home or face discrimination in society.
