Human Rights watch is a very left wing organization and it's very biased. How you are ranked is based on points you get points for allowing certain things in your nation and loose points for other items. Currently you gain more points for allowing abortion (which they consider a fundimental human right and they are pushing for abortion on demand) than you loose for using child soldier.
They have been know to declare that criminals in the US are actually "prisoners of conscience" and as such they take away points for that. HRW is known to use a different approach than amnisty international in that they will clasify someone as a POC who has used violence.
Lastly HRW has recieved donations from the Sharia council of Saudi Arabia, in exchange for money HRW has not commented on issues in Saudi Arbia yet goes after the US and Isreal at every opertunity. After the Saudis the largest donor to HRW is George Soros who has donated a staggering 100 million to the organization.
The founder of HRW Robert Bernstein was so troubled by the bias in the organization that was coming in after money from certain parties was accepted that he is the source that wrote the article in the New York times about HRW taking Saudi money.

Well, even your ATS name is stiff and formal, and I'm not surprised, because truly---where have you been for the last well, fifty years? Or do you just say such things to get a reaction?
The United States is on the human rights watch list because they don't even give mothers enough time off to bond with their babies---or spend six weeks breastfeeding.
1) There are more women managers in the United States than male managers. More women are going to college and earning a degree than men. AND---for the first time in history, more women are in the workforce than men! The structure of employment has swung towards women, favoring their innate characteristics--such as patience and focus--in this information age. Lots of dads are staying home to raise the kids these days. Or didn't you know?
2) If I didn't work, we couldn't send our children to college----college being a year's salary these days, my friend. I'd love to stay home and eat bon-bons, but well, just can't afford to do it.
TPTB have set it up so that most families need two incomes to survive. That's NOT WOMEN'S FAULT.
I'm just going to pretend you didn't crawl out from under a rock and post that.
