Abstract EN

This study aims to highlight the legal protection of the child through analyzing the legal articles in the fields of health and education.

Moreover, and since the best interest of the child is to allow him/her to exercise some of the rights of the adults, the Jordanian legislator has organized the issues of child labor and marriage, which necessitated the identification of children's rights in these areas.

The study concluded that the Jordanian legislator took into account the best interest of the child in the issues of child health and education, so that the child's father will be held financially responsible of covering the costs of these benefits.

On the other hand, and in the case of the fathers insolvent, the child's mother will be held responsible of covering the needed expenses, which will be considered as a debt that should be paid back by the father when capable.

The study recommended the need to constrict child marriage procedures in order to reduce early marriage cases and make it in the narrowest range
