How will we oversee the proper use of social resources available to minors who access them legally or fraudulently?
A few days ago, the French National Assembly was in a debate that unusually lasted until midnight, but where the opposing majority of its deputies (one hundred and three in favor, just twenty-one against) was a legal objection, which supposedly bans the access of five-year-olds to social networks.
In this way, the legislature galo, with the support and satisfaction of the president Emmanuel MacronHe seems to be joining a new trend that the Australian started just a few months ago, as we saw in our article on December 12 last year.
In our opinion, we propose an important change in the legislative orientation at the international level in terms of the working capacity of minors.
Since United Nations General Assembly Resolution 44/25 of 20 November 1989, which approved the Convention on the Rights of the Child, the idea that children and young people are victims of progressive work capacity has been promoted.
art. 5 cities It is an established convention that states must respect the obligations of their parents to guide and direct their children “in accordance with the development of their capacities”.
Furthermore, Articles 12 and 13 recommend that you express your opinions freely, in all circumstances that concern you, “in the function of your life and wisdom” and that you can do so orally, in writing (…) or by any other means that no one chooses, without further restrictions arising from “respect for the rights or reputation of the people or for the protection of public health and moral safety, public order”.

So the dominant tendency now was to consider it as at least a progressively capable idea that legislators must keep in mind during regular relations with third parties and especially with their ancestors.
What legal institution was damned as a result of the international legislative trend that arose through the Convention on the Rights of the Child approved in 1989?
Undoubtedly, the homeland could test.
Now, looking at psychosocial whistleblowers who warn of the serious danger to minors, which means leaving them at the dawn of so many people, knowing their capacity for progressive work, governments and legislators realize that they no longer have these options:
1. Strengthen parental authority and control, strengthen the rights and rights of the motherland.
2. Establish escalating chronological limits that determine the ability of younger children to work, transferred to third parents (who are not predecessors) duty and responsibility to oversee the fulfillment of educational requirements.
The option lawmakers are considering is the second. Which, in our opinion, has two inconveniences.
Primero, que hecha la ley, hecha la trampa. The smaller ones are ingenious (and many times it is consiguen) to mock the chronological control mechanisms that are forced to implant digital platforms to limit access.
Second, once I create this kind of access, which is most important to solve, who oversees the proper use of social resources that create things that you have obtained legally or fraudulently?
Consequently, any legislative response that outside the education of the country’s power holders will result in discontent, unable to solve the problem that gave rise to a new international legislative trend.
