The NHRC found that, in accordance with Article 1055 of the Civil Code, during a divorce by mutual consent, parents reach agreement on for the exercise of custody, financial support, and visits, but the process often ignores children's right to be heard and often fails to meet the "best interests of the child" principle. The lack of professional guidelines and monitoring mechanisms has become a risk factor for major child abuse incidents in recent years. 47. Recommendation: The Government should establish professional guidelines for divorced parents with children (especially those under 6 years old) on the exercise of custody after divorce. This is to ensure that agreements on the exercise of custody, financial support, and visits are consistent with the children's right to be heard and the principle of best interests of the child. Issue 10 Right to Life, Survival and Development Child Suicide 48. Referring to §§65, 68, and 70-72 of the Second Report and Attachments 3-7 and 3-10, the NHRC found in the Control Yuan investigation report34 that nearly 70% of students who died by suicide in 2018-2019 did not access school counseling, and a significant gap remains between school counseling resources and student needs. The 2018-2019 Campus Student Self-Harm Analysis and Strategies Report states that only 6% of students who committed suicide had contact with off-campus resources before their death, and less than 2% of students who committed self-harm did that. 34 The Control Yuan investigation report approved on Aug 18, 2021.
