Antigua and Barbuda lie on the edge of the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, in the Leeward Islands. Since gaining independence, the Bird family have been dominant in national politics, and it was not until 2004 that a President emerged from outside of the family. Many of the most serious issues affecting children’s rights relate to juvenile justice, in the context of which, life imprisonment and corporal punishment are both legal.
