United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC)

Along with Agenda 21, the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) is cause for concern. Evidently it is another wolf in sheep's clothing...

Here is a quote from a website called Parental Rights about the treaty:

"This poses a serious threat both to parental rights and to U.S. sovereignty, as the UNCRC dictates not only that the federal government must intrude into the family sphere to an unprecedented degree, but also how the federal government is to monitor and govern the actions of our families. Parental rights would be replaced by "the best interests of the child" as defined, ultimately, by an international committee of 18 people in Switzerland."

The Parental Rights organization is working on amending the United States Constitution to protect parental rights, as this would be the only way to override a treaty should the treaty be ratified by the Senate.

Evidently the treaty has been signed but not ratified. Does anyone know the status of Senate ratification of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child?
