| Abstract | The digital environment has become an indispensable component of childhood, shaping education, recreation, and social interaction. However, increased connectivity exposes children to multifaceted risks including cyberbullying, online grooming, exposure to harmful content, privacy violations, and algorithmic manipulation. Legal systems worldwide have responded with evolving regulatory frameworks aimed at safeguarding children’s rights in digital spaces. This article critically examines the legal rights of children online, the contemporary risks they face, and the responsibilities of parents and guardians in ensuring digital safety. Drawing upon international human rights instruments, domestic legislation, judicial precedents, and recent regulatory developments including data protection laws and platform accountability standards-the article analyzes how child protection principles operate in cyberspace. It argues that child online protection must be understood as an extension of constitutional and human rights guarantees, particularly the rights to dignity, privacy, education, and protection from exploitation. The article proposes a multi-layered framework combining legislative safeguards, technological tools, parental awareness, and institutional accountability. By integrating legal norms with practical safety strategies, it offers a holistic perspective on advancing children’s best interests in the digital age. |
