In China, the protection of juvenile rights has historically been a secondary consideration, which is often relegated to the status of "goal for the future". However, the value of juvenile rights and their protection lie not only in the morality of child protection, but also in the role that juvenile rights can play in the development of human fights as a whole. Publicity given to juvenile rights reminds us of the "adult society" standing in complementary opposition to the "juvenile society" that juvenile rights refer to. It is adult society to deal with juvenile rights, so any errors of understanding or failures of equality can lead to children being deprived of the rights.
