Speaking Up for Kid's Rights in Brandenburg: Minister Freiberg and Commissioner Krumrey Lead the Charge

Affirming Child Rights in the Fundamental Law - Minister Expresses Support for Petition - Advocacy for Child Rights in the Basic Law: Minister Endorses Petition

Listen up, folks! Brandenburg's Education Minister, Steffen Freiberg (SPD), is pushing to secure children's rights in the fundamental law of Germany, aptly known as the Basic Law. As he puts it, "Kids and young whippersnappers ain't just accessories, they're right holders!" The idea is to enshrine the special needs and protections of these youngsters in the Basic Law, so they're never overlooked in political, judicial, or administrative decisions.

Minister Freiberg ain't messing around. If kids' rights are embedded in the Basic Law, their well-being will be pinned down as a priority in politics, courts, and government offices—not a soft spot for debate but a hard-set mandate. Cool stuff, right? Brandenburg's Children and Youth Commissioner, Katrin Krumrey, has already started a petition on this matter. She's hustling to make sure her fellow Germans get the message: kiddos deserve their rights, plain and simple.

Katrin ain't mincing words. She's clear: kids are independent beings with their own thoughts and voices. They ain't commodities to be handed around. Now, she's asking everyone to sign her petition to convince the new German Parliament to add children's rights to the Basic Law, pronto!
