The percentage of hearing about CRC was 61.0% in the first and 62.3% in the fourth grade. A lower percentage of faculty of science and arts students had heard of CRC at both first and fourth grades (p<0.05). The place of residence until 14 years of age and hearing about CRC were significantly related at the first grade (p=0.015) but this was not significant at the fourth grade (p=0.189).conclusion: Evaluation, discussion and knowledge of CR are very important. Parent education on CRC will help children adopt and practice the notion of rights in their lives. Education programs will positively affect university students’ attitudes towards their children
