    • respect human rights
    • respect their parents
    • respect their and others’ culture, language and values
    • have self-respect
    • respect the environment.

Random fact no 8

For every 100,000 children and young people in the UK, 23 are locked up. This is nearly four times the number of children and young people locked up in France and over 100 times the number of children locked up in Finland!
