Dear parents - Yes you can give your sick child paracetamol if they’re >3 months old. It’s an excellent painkiller. It brings down a high temperature. It’s one of the safest drugs available. You are right to want to soothe your child’s distress. Evidence supports your good parenting. Be confident.

The CRPD, the state and civil society – in conversation with Professor Peter Bartlett
In this 'in conversation with,' I talk to Professor Peter Bartlett about his article "Beyond the liberal subject: challenges in interpreting the CRPD, and the CRPD’s challenges to human rights," and discuss how the CRPD challenges conventional civil and political rights, the implications for the role of the state (and what happens if the state is not benign), and what the CRPD requires of civil society.
