I should allow other students the right to speak without stopping them, listen to what they have to say and let them finish before i speak again.





What responsibilities should other students at the meeting have toward your right to speak? List and explain these responsibilities.

They should let me speak without any interfirence , so i will not have to raise my voice and also let me finish saying what i want to say .

What might happen to the right to free speech if no one fulfilled the responsibilitiesyou have discussed?

There will not be freedom of speech if no one fullfills thier responsibilities , because nop one could talk or listen .


The situation of children's rights in Israel
.

In My opinion the situation of children's rights In Israel is reasonably good, but there is a need for improvement. I think that children are treated quite fairly .In Israel violence is not tolerated for all children no different religions or ethnic backgrounds, but violence does exist.
.

Every kid can say what they think and the children have the right to be heard.
The children are protected from torture and humiliation. Boys and girls are equal and all young people have the right to speak. Everyone has the right to privacy; Everyone has the right to a reasonable standard of living.

.
All children's in Israel have the right:
· To grow and be happy
· All children have the right to play.
· Right to education.
· Right to special needs education if needed
· Right to be treated equally and fairly.
· Right to be safe.
· Right not to be mistreated or abused in any way.
or physical cruelty.
· Right to learn and become a better person.
· Boys and girls should follow the same studies.
· Right to learn about other religions and cultures.
· Right to be respected by teachers.
· Right to explain ourselves before being punished.
· Facilities for disabled pupils - disabled pupils have equal rights.
· Subjects that are not academic should be offered.

.
I think that some rights have to be improved for example:
· Parents should have a right to a say in our education.
· We all should have the right to a reasonable standard of living.
· We should support those who are victims of homelessness,
sickness or unemployment to give children's a chance to get out of poverty.
· Being able to walk down the street without having to constantly look over your shoulders.
· Right to safe transport to and from school.
· People should not be judged by their beliefs.
· Everyone should be able to have dignity, equality, freedom, justice.
· Every person in the world is a part of the human family so they
· should be treated with respect.
· No-one should be made fun of.
· Everyone has the right to speak whatever language they want, but in my opinion all Israeli citizens should be able to speak Hebrew as well.
· No-one is better than anyone else. It is OK to be different.

So to conclude this essay, I think that the children's rights in Israel is much better than in many other countries in the world. But it still needs to be better and we should work for that purpose.
