An issue that does not achieve consensus in the benches of the presidential majority. The president of the National Assembly could have called for this Sunday “a #MeToo” of the minor, Charlotte Caubel, the Secretary of State for Children resists.
“I’m a bit skeptical of the idea of ’#MeToo’ which is a veneer of what happened to women,” the former magistrate told BFMTV on Monday.
“A Shaken Baby Can’t Talk”
“A shaken baby cannot speak. A 4-year-old boy who is a victim of incest does not know that he is a victim of abuse, ”adds the former head of the judicial guardianship of minors.
Yaël Braun-Pivet, the patron saint of the Palais-Bourbon, called to her side on Sunday in the columns of the JDD to a “#MeToo childhood.”
“The figures of violence that children are victims of are terrifying. (…) They do not necessarily know that the acts of which they are victims do not constitute the norm and are prohibited by law. There are advances to be made in schools ”, the president of the National Assembly also advances.
Since his arrival at Le Perchoir last June, he has launched the children’s rights delegation, explaining to the weekly that “laws are not enough to solve problems.”
“Adults Need to Talk”
Response from Charlotte Caubel, Secretary of State for Children on our antenna:
“We must not place our responsibility on children. We must listen to the words of children but adults must speak.”
After several diverse events, involving social assistance services for children, the government wants to advance in the protection of children by making several announcements this Monday at the end of the day through the voice of Olivier Véran, the government spokesman.
Élisabeth Borne also receives about twenty young people in Matignon, from 8 to 12 years old, for a Council of Ministers for children. In 2021, the government had already presented a law to improve the living conditions of children in foster care.
