Abstract	The current study aimed to evaluate levels of respect for children's rights showed towards females from 18 to 25 in their childhood, and to interpret their expectations and opinions. Data were collected with open-ended questions in written and qualitatively content-analyzed. The participants were 67 females ranging in age from 18 to 25 from 24 provinces in Turkey. The participants' statements showed that they felt special and unique in their childhood, their relatives and close others were not allowed to caress them without their consent, they were asked for opinions in matters that concerned them, and their parents gave them the opportunity to spend their free time as they wished. The most valued child rights by the participants were right to play, rest, and spend their free time, right to freedom of expression and thought, and right to receive education. What they did not find the chance to do although they wanted very much were being a child, sightseeing, becoming a family, and being into sports. On the other hand, there were also participants who stated that they could not find the chance to spend their free time as they wished because they had to work, and they were caressed by others without their consent. Considering the results, it may be suggested that the rights of the child be respected and valued more, and various public services, seminars and instructions be made for raising more awareness.
