abstract="Children never receive their due share of attention and care. Their legitimate rights as humans have been grossly ignored and violated. However, like older people, children have the right to safe, preventive, promotive, and curative health care services. Individuals, society, and the state are responsible for a large number of unethical and inhumane practices in medical care upon both fetuses and children. Some of these practices are discussed. A woman's right to abortion under the Medical Termination of Pregnancy Act has greatly curtailed the right of unborn children to live. The act and unsafe abortion are discussed. Violence against children by radiation, drugs, environmental poisons, nutritional deficiency, and female infanticide are then reviewed, followed by consideration of children's rights to safe birth, post-birth safety, and a safe childhood.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
