The issue of meeting children is important and in addition to parents, States also play a role. In fact, children, due to their low age, need special protection to enforce their rights. Therefore, in situations where the process of life of children is affected by events such as parental divorce, displacement or immigration, it is very important to visitation them with their parents and relatives. Since 1959 and the adoption of the Declaration on the Rights of the Child, there have been several international and regional human rights instruments in support of the rights of the child, however, children are faced with the challenge of visitation in many cases due to parents' selfishness and failing to carry out duties or neglecting States in protecting the rights of children. Although visitation of children is not considered as a duty, it is observed a right for parents and children and affects children's various rights such as health and identity rights
