Legal advice
Get wise: get advised
In films or on TV, people usually shout 'Get me my lawyer!' when they're in trouble. It's not a line many of us expect to use ourselves. But there may be a time in your life when you need help from someone who knows about the law.
My rights
As a young person, you have legal rights. You might not know some of them. For example, did you know that you've got the right to have a say in the decisions that affect you? This and many other rights are set out in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (see Know Your Rights). If you take a look, you could be surprised at the rights you have.
If someone or something stops you enjoying your rights, you can get help.
