Identify why it is important that a child or young person has the right to take part in decisions that may affect them.

So they can learn how to make decisions on their own when they grow up, they eventually have to make their own decisions. It's important to teach a child how to make their own decisions so they will be ready when they're on their own in the real world. 

Hey there!

It is very important that a child or young person make their decisions.

It can be important for a child/young person to make their own decisions (for some things) because if they don't, they will grow up thinking other people can just make their  decisions for them. Also, it depends on what decision the child is making. If a child is deciding whether or not they will do outdoor activities, then that should be up to the parents since the child can get hurt. Some kids don't know whether something is dangerous to do or not.
If a child is deciding what their favorite color is or what they like to do in their spare time, that is a good example of what they should be deciding on their own.

Hope this helps you.
Have a great day!
