State guarantees and the rights of orphans without parental care, according to the law
By law, every child has the right to a full life and upbringing in a family. Orphans often do not have such an opportunity, so the state takes care of them, creating conditions for them that are close to a real family.
State guarantees and the rights of orphans
Orphans are children who, for whatever reason, were left without a father and mother. Minors left without parental care are also directly related to them. These include those minors whose father and mother are missing, deprived of their rights, and are serving sentences in places of deprivation of liberty.
The rights of orphans should not be infringed upon in any way
What orphans are entitled to:
- free education and travel by city or local transport;
- free medical care and treatment in public hospitals, the provision of vouchers to sanatoriums, camps and recreation centers;
- property and housing, while for persons who do not have a fixed living space, the state is obliged to provide the required living space;
- labor, providing opportunities for the realization of the right to work, unemployment benefits;
- legal protection and free legal aid.
Practice shows that the rights of orphans are often violated. Therefore, the state has created a system of organs that helps children in difficult life circumstances. The functions of protecting the rights of children are entrusted to the guardianship authorities.
How to arrange for children left without parental care
The best form of orphan placement is adoption or adoption. The adopted child receives the same rights and responsibilities as the native. If the orphan has reached the age of 10, he must personally give his consent to this procedure. The adoption secret was not disclosed.
There are other forms as well:
- Guardianship and guardianship. The selection of trustees is carried out by the guardianship authorities. Subsequently, the same bodies control whether the authorized persons honestly perform their duties.
- Foster family. In this case, an agreement is drawn up between the parents and the guardianship authority, which indicates the amount of remuneration for the foster father and mother and the amount of funds issued for the maintenance of the orphan.
- Foster education. In this case, specialized services and organizations are engaged in children. The foster carers provide the child with all the necessary assistance.
In all these cases, children retain all their rights and benefits.
The high level of protection of the rights of orphans speaks in favor of such a state.
