Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  (CNN) Kei te whakahe te American Civil Liberties Union i tētahi ture o Alabama e akiaki ana i te hunga i raro i te 18 e whai ana ki te whakatā, kia haere i roto i tētahi tukanga whakawātea e rite ana ki te whakawakanga. I te nuinga o te wā, e hiahiatia ana e ngā ture i Te Hononga o Amerika te whakaaetanga a te mātua kia whiwhi ai te tamaiti iti i te materoto. Engari ki ētahi tamariki, kāore e taea te whakaaetanga a te mātua, he mea mōrearea rānei. Me whai i tētahi ara whakawa i tēnei kāwai o ngā rangatahi. Ahakoa he āhuatanga noa iho te whakatārewatanga i roto i ētahi atu kāwanatanga, tērā pea kua tino kaha rawa tēnei ture o Alabama. Koia nei ngā whakaritenga pōhēhē o tēnei "whakatau i te whakawakanga":. • Kua hurihia e Alabama te mea e kiia ana he whakawakanga kore-pāpori, e hāngai ana ki te tamaiti hei whakawakanga. • Ka taea e te kooti te whakarite i tētahi Kaitiaki ad Litem - he rōia kua whakaritea mo te tamaiti, hei tauira, i roto i te tukanga whakarere, i te whakawakanga rānei e pā ana ki ngā mātua kāore i te tika - mō te tamaiti kei roto i te kopu. • Ka taea te whakawhiti kōrero i te tamaiti e te roia ā-rohe, ā, ko nga mātua o te tamaiti. • Ka taea te whakapuaki i ngā mōhiohio e pā ana ki te hapūtanga o te tamaiti ki tōna whānau, hoa, me ngā kaituku mahi, ā, ka taea hoki rātou te kawe ki te kooti ki te whakaatu - ki te tamaiti. I te wā e pā ana ki te materoto, e whakaarohia ana kia whai wāhi ngā tamariki iti ki te tika ture o te tūmataiti pērā ki ngā pakeke, e kore e takahi i te kāwanatanga. Heoi anō, kua āta whakamāramatia e te Kōti Nui ngā take e kore ai ngā tika ā-ture o ngā tamariki e ōrite ki ngā tika o ngā pakeke. He ngoikore ngā tamariki, ā, kāore e taea te whakatau i ngā whakataunga nui, ā, he tika hoki ki ngā mātua te whai wāhi ki te whakaako i tō rātou tamaiti. Ka taea e nga kawanatanga te whakatakoto ture e whakawhiwhia ana ki nga tamariki iti e hiahia ana ki te kohungahunga ki tetahi atu whakaritenga: te whakauru o nga matua. Heoi, ki te hiahia te kāwanatanga kia whakaaetia e ngā mātua te kohungahunga hapū ki te whakatā, me whakarato e te kāwanatanga tētahi tikanga kē mō te whiwhi i taua whakaaetanga - he mea e "whakahā" ana i te whakaaetanga a Mama rāua ko Papa. Kua hiahiatia e te Kooti Nui kia whakarite ēnei whakarongo "me whakarite i taua whakataunga... kia oti i te kore ingoa me te nui...
Cevallos: Ka haere rawa pea a Alabama i roto i te tukanga e whakamahia ana hei whakatau mēnā ka taea e te taiohi te tango i te kohungahunga me te kore whakaaetanga a te matua. E ai ki a ia, he mea tika te whakarongo ki te kōti, engari ko te tukanga whakawātea, pēnei i te whakawakanga, he pātai.
