== Rights of child ==
Children have rights and can become parties to Court proceedings when they have the capacity to instruct counsel (usually 12 or older). This means a lawyer can advocate on the child’s best interests during the court proceedings.
The '''Child Youth Legal Center''' can provide legal help for young people who are experiencing problems relating to family law and child protection. They can also help find legal representation for children.
