Whole thing seems to be about the denied rights of parents, not children? Doesn’t mention what any child wants anywhere. Weird to dress it up as being about the children.

Children benefit to have both parents in their lives, especially when young and can not express consent. There are enough studies and exemples in every other developed countries where it's the norm that it's not a matter of opinion.

The UN's CRC is indeed about Children's Human Rights. The specific article in question being Art 9.3

Yet the story is 'man denied right to see children', not 'children denied right to see father'.
