Children are rarely perceived as torture victims, although they may be easier targets. International inertia is compounded as not only torture, but also 'other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment' is prohibited. Some of these occur in the private sphere, which traditionalists erroneously assume outside of international human rights law. Children may also be unprotected because they suffer from trauma in different ways from adults. Jurisprudence of human rights fora based principally on adult victims, despite some dicta to the contrary, risks international standards being inappropriately applied to child victims. This promotes an analysis which fails to address the particular vulnerabilities of children and their role as social actors.
