I've never read the UN Convention on Children's Rights until this post. What a crock. They prescribe how a child is to be reared and what is to be taught. It even gives government the authority to remove the child based on their assessment of efficacy. Chilling!!

As far as I know, only UNSC resolutions and/or subsequent actions can be deemed as 'legally binding.' The 'Charter' is little more than a guideline under which members agree to participate. This is where the UN is over-stepping their bounds of the Charter and its intent, they are not a de facto international governing agency to which all state members are subordinate.

Under no circumstances would our Constitution allow the US to subordinate our Sovereignty to an extra-Legislative hegemony of member nations.
