Hi guys! This is my first ever attempt at writing a resolution and I was hoping y'all could give me some recommendations or criticism?
"The World Assembly,
Keeping in mind that many educational/behavioral correctional facilities can help to rehabilitate delinquent youth,
Noting the use of force authorized by legal guardians or parents to forcibly restrain and remove children from their homes in a worryingly violent fashion which is sponsored by some of these types of facilities,
Concerned by the outright denial to contact parents or the otherwise monitoring or manipulation of what children may tell their parents which is enforced in some facilities and programs,
Abhorred by the means of punishment used in some facilities, such as but not limited to food deprivation, solitary confinement, and the use of "restraining" tactics for children usually entailing many adults physically forcing children to the ground, with some reports of staff members choking children or other excessively violent means, in some cases corroborated by video footage of such "restraints,"
Hereby,
1. Defines educational/behavioral correctional facilities as any educational institution or retreat and any long term camp or otherwise programs,
2. Prohibits the use of violence in such facilities or programs unless there is probable cause for fear of imminent danger to the safety of others or oneself,
3. Prohibits the use of solitary confinement, denial of food, or the long term prohibition of students or children of speaking to one another,
4. Mandates that students or children shall not be denied the right to speak to or otherwise contact their parents in any time and any way in an unmonitored and unmanipulated fashion,
5. Mandates that students and children shall have the right to file reports on any educational/behavioral correction facility staff member or facility, the reports shall be handled by the government of the home nation,
6. Encourages member states to monitor such facilities or programs to prevent the systematic abuse of children in such facilities or programs."
