Since this topic is so over-reaching, and becoming more prevalent in nations around the world. AND considering that we now have a pro-UN heirarchy in our USA govt (which, so far has not signed on to this)...I am just going to make this thread the place I post all articles on UNCRC cases I recieve. OK?
We should all take notice and/or prepare ourselves, IMO.

case 1:
Quote:
When Kris Wylie returned from her training mission with the U.S. Air Force in October 2007, she expected to be greeted by her seven-year-old daughter Leighlora, and her five-year-old daughter Lillian Ann. Instead, Kris returned to hear that, while she had been away, Italian authorities had removed her two girls from their home on the American military base in Aviano, Italy.1
case 2:
Quote:
Bill Cosby used to joke about how his grown children always seemed to find their way back to his house. For Italian parents, grown children leaving their parents’ house practically is a joke.
In 2002, Italy’s highest appeals court ruled that parents are required by law to support their adult children until the children “find a job to their liking.”7

Five years later, the same Italian appeals court once again reached into the family, this time to change a one-year-old child’s name.
In December 2007, the court ordered the parents of Friday Germano to rename him Gregory. When the parents refused, the court changed the child’s name itself, over the parents’ objections, because the judge felt that the name recalled the servile savage in Daniel Defoe’s novel Robinson Crusoe, and because superstitious Italians consider Friday an unlucky day.10 The court picked “Gregory” after the saint whose feast day fell on the boy’s birthday.11

In May 2008, Italian authorities announced a plan to fingerprint all of Italy’s Roma population, including children. According to the state, the Roma, or “Gypsies” as they are often called in the Italian media, are the source of Italy’s rising crime rate, and the state must know the identities and whereabouts of all of them - even the children.14
