What the petition asks
To protect Children from being exposed to Emotional or Physical Harm, the law should be strengthened to stop them attending or taking part in all Hunting activities.
Children are not allowed to play violent video games or watch violent movies (age restricted) so why are they allowed go Hunting?

The Children Act 1989 aims to protect Children from being exposed to the risks of Physical and Emotional Harm and also ensures that they should be protected from Neglectful parenting too.
With these issues in mind, I would argue that Children (Under the age of 18) should not be legally allowed to attend Hunting or Hunting Activities as it places them at risk of emotional and physical harm.
