CONCLUSION
Children and young people have the same general human rights as adults and also specific rights that recognize their special needs. Children are neither the property of their parents nor are they helpless objects of charity. They are human beings and are the subject of their own rights.
The researcher studied the nature of the problem, history and societal Impacts which surround the practice of child rights. Where childhood resides in the perception and categorization of children by each population according their social and economic realities, hence asserting the cultural construct approach of childhood. parental responsibility can play a significant role in minimizing child rights. Indeed if parental responsibilities are genuinely assumed children would hardly fall prey of traffickers and all others child abusers. Because the role of the parents is direct and assumed on a regular basis in the life of the child. To a great extent, parents have the power to make decision about whether their children should fall victim of traffickers or not. In many cases the lack of parental responsibility in all its aspect has favoured the perpetuation of child rights.
The research work also went further to look into the nature of the problem, history and societal Impacts. Trafficking been a contemporary and persisting phenomenon in Nigerian society. Marinova and James write that: ‘trafficking is a transnational crime that encompasses not only women but also children and men. It includes not only sex trafficking but also trafficking for the purposes of labor and organ transplants'. Human trafficking is an illegal trade that exists across the globe. The researcher was able to bring out the similarities between human trafficking in general and child trafficking.
