Johnny (2007) states that the rights of children are supported because "...in addition to the philosophical and legal justifications for promoting participatory rights, a substantial body of literature also suggests that youth participation in schools could lead to a more just and democratic society." This idea is stated to be supported in the work of scholars and their claims which state that when schools "...cultivate civic virtues, such as participation; students learn how to become responsible citizens." (Johnny, 2007) Johnny additionally states that the work of White (1996) held that "...democratic communities need independent-minded citizens, willing to stand up for what they believe, able to challenge any incipient emergence of authoritarianism, and quick to act on the infringements of the rights of themselves and others."

White states that this type of respect is based upon a conception of oneself as a moral person with certain rights and responsibilities."
