Diritti dei bambini, diritti delle famiglie. Promuovere e formare le “capacità” genitoriali

The paper focuses on the reasons for the link between children's rights and family rights, in order to highlight thatparenting educational competences are challenging risk factor in contexts of poverty and always decisive factor for the actual promotion of the rights of children and adolescents.More precisely, firstly the passages of of the Convention in which the necessity of the family is argued as primary context of children's rights. Secondly, it will be problematized the very idea of children's rights in the light of the "capability approach".On this basis, it will be asked whether, from a pedagogical point of view, the family can, as a whole, be the holder of a right to education, trying to rewrite some passages of the Convention almost as one "Charter of the rights of families".
