AB In relation to youth rights, a new view has been created in recent
decades that is included in the fundamental law of the child: the
recognition of the right to education and the chance to develop a mature
personality capable of creativity and liberty. Because of HIV infection
it is very important to pay particular attention to the rights of the
seropositive child and children born to seropositive mothers, which may
be hampered not only in developing countries but also in the industrial
world. HIV-affected children and their families are becoming abused and
at high risk of becoming abused and this encroaches upon youth rights.
As a consequence, in 1991 the Italian Society of Paediatrics issued a
Charter for the rights of seropositive children, which became an
important document for all health care and social workers who deal with
HIV-affected children. In this paper, we also consider the impact of HIV
infection on the three main rights of children: the right to live, the
rights of security and the rights of socialization.
