It is curious to analyze how legal systems regulate the rights of children. They recognize the right to integrity, to dignity, to liberty of consciousness, to education, to free development of personality, to identity, among others. All of these rights are theoretical and legal constructs that, despite being important, fail to focus clearly and directly in elements that, according to psychoanalysis and psychology, children need to be happy, such as: self-awareness, developed creativity, self-esteem, free expression of ideas and feelings, experiences of freedom and understanding of limits.
