In some cases, kids' natural rights are not honored. In other cases they are. The same as with adults. Our natural rights aren't always honored. It is to keep things stable, in a way.
Kids (in the US) have a right to education, to not be beaten and abused, etc. But those rights are limited, by adults trying to protect, and bring them up. Despite what natural rights they have, adults have dominance over them legally up until a certain age. If adults abuse that power, or fall short, they are to blame, and are punished. As kids have rights, adults have rights too. The right to (possibly) set age limits in order to better protect themself from liability.
Just as other members here said it would fall on them and Eve... if I had students or knew of students who were doing some of the stuff on here, it would fall on me to report it to parents and the Principal, and Counselor. Otherwise I would be held responsible, as the adult, if they found out I knew about it. I would lose my certification and job real quick.
The way the system sees it, the students belong to their parents and really have no natural right to choice over their bodies. (Which is also a reason why students having a sexual relationship with a teacher is wrong, even though sex is natural. This stuff should and has to be reported. They don't have a right to choose that, and responsibility and punishment fall on the adult. I'm not going too far into that though.)
I have to respect legal over natural most times otherwise I won't be employed very long.
In a way, they are slaves totheir parents. (but not in a horrible way like the 1800's) There are truly gifted students out there, but it falls back to the parents. That's the way it is set up. Their parents are responsible for them, so some of their rights are limited. They don't come to school, the parents, who they belong to, get court marshalled, etc.
In some ways, you have to abide by, the fact that kids aren't and can't just free to do what they want, when they want, and how, because if they are allowed to do so, when it hits the fan, it will impose on someone else's rights... the adults society thinks is responsible for the "kids'" wayward thinking and/or actions. They will also be held responsible for not stopping them.
If ya let them do what they want because it is their natural right, there goes your natural right to freedom... when you get locked up, or lose your job over something a kid did.
Protecting yourself from this kind of stuff is a given, imo, with all the lawsuits around. It too is a right.
