abstract: 'The upbringing of children relies heavily on shared responsibilities
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
between parents and society. The Council of Europe Recommendation (2006)
|
|
|
|
|

19 on Policy to Support Positive Parenting and the European Commission

Recommendation (2013) Investing in Children: Breaking the Cycle of
|

|
|
|
Disadvantage, both aim at supporting parents to care and provide for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
their children in accordance with the UN Convention on the Rights of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Child. By means of a document analysis this article examines what kind
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of parental practices and provision to parents the recommendations
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
suggest to safeguard children''s rights in the family. Three findings are
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
highlighted: first, both recommendations reflect a commitment to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
respecting children''s rights while at the same time acknowledging
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
parents as children''s primary caregivers. Second, both recognize
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
parents'' rights to work, while also recognizing the necessity of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
adequate income support if work is not available or income too low.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Third, adequate resources are defined as a combination of universal
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
policies and services, which guarantee a minimum level for all, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
targeted measures reaching out to the most disadvantaged. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
recommendations'' emphasis on children and parents as partners and on the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
families'' economic situations are valuable for future development of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
family and child policy and support programs.'
