The aim of this study was to investigate the perspectives of social workers in Taiwan on children's rights. Among the 94 social workers who were interviewed, most were familiar with children's rights terminology. From the results of this study, parental needs and the inability of young children to communicate effectively hindered the balance between protection of and participation by children. To better implement children's rights, social workers should gain a deeper understanding of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) and develop skills for communicating well with children and parents.
