The Issue of Children's Rights and Upbringing in The East (Based on Analysis of Historical Sources)

Abstract

This article investigates the historical development of children's rights and upbringing practices in Eastern countries by drawing on a range of historical sources. It explores how different eras and cultures in the East approached child-rearing, focusing on both the methods employed and the extent to which children's rights were recognized and protected. The study highlights how upbringing practices have evolved over time, while also identifying core values that have remained consistent across generations. Through a comparative analysis, the authors examine the balance between traditional approaches and the demands of contemporary society, emphasizing how cultural heritage continues to influence modern educational and parental practices. By bridging the past and present, the article offers valuable insights into the shifting perceptions of childhood and the ongoing efforts to ensure the welfare and development of children in Eastern societies. The findings contribute to a broader understanding of the cultural foundations of children’s rights and the importance of adapting historical values to meet modern needs.
