A General Declaration of human rights was adopted

How are the child's rights being violated in the

Keeping the declared human rights is very important for the relations

K. Babenko, O. Vozianova. This booklet was published with support
of the Department of Press, Education and Culture of the US Embassy
in Ukraine, 1999
How do we usually understand violence?
In most of the times we only treat as violence only physical violence.
It is difficult even to assume how often we show violence or become
its victims.
It turns out that violence is:
- threats to cause bodily injuries to self of other;
- unclear phrases like: "I will get you!"
- threats to leave, to take the children, not to give money, to
divorce, to tell something;
- causing injuries to the pets with the purpose of taking revenge
on the partner;
- breaking and destroying personal belongings, using swear-words;
- using bad language;
- humiliating, offending, constant underlining of the shortcomings
- controlling, limiting conversation, spying;
- forbidding to go to sleep or forced waking up process;
- blaming in all the problems;
- criticizing thoughts, feelings and deeds;
- treating the person as a servant;
