Views: The Right to be Heard Does Not Allow Children to Sufficiently Influence Outcomes -- Putting the Autonomy Principle into Practice: Moving from a Focus on ?Competence? to One on Significant Harm -- Chapter 7: Autonomy Support: Embedding the Children?s Autonomy Principle in Good Systems -- Conclusion. 330 $aIn this book Aoife Daly argues that where courts decide children?s best interests (for example about parental contact) the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child's \'right to be heard\' is insufficient, and autonomy should instead be the focus. Global law and practice indicate that children are regularly denied due process rights in their own best interest proceedings and find their wishes easily overridden. It is argued that a children?s autonomy principle, respecting children?s wishes unless significant harm would likely result, would ensure greater support for children in proceedings, and greater obligations on adults to engage in transparent decision-making. This book is a call for a reconceptualisation of the status of children in a key area of children?s rights. 410 0$aStockholm studies in child law and children's rights ;$vVolume 3. 606 $aChildren's rights 606 $aChildren (International law) 606 $aDue process of law 606 $aLocus standi 606 $aAutonomy in children 610 $aRight to participate in proceedings 615 0$aChildren's rights. 615 0$aChildren (International law) 615 0$aDue process of law. 615 0$aLocus standi. 615 0$aAutonomy in children. 676 $a342.08772 700 $aDaly$b Aoife$01699612 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910809440903321 996 $aChildren, autonomy and the courts$94082001 997 $aUNINA
