What is the age of criminal responsibility? This means children under the age of 18 have specific rights. The Welsh Government has signed the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC). The policeman asks a lot of questions and confuses Christopher, causing him to punch the policeman and be taken to the police station. When Christopher is investigating the death of Wellington, Mrs Shears calls the police. The policeman took hold of my arm and lifted me onto my feet I wanted to answer the question properly, but the policeman did not give me enough time to work out the correct answer. ‘And why were you holding the dog?’ he asked. There are lots of interesting legal issues raised in The Curious Incident of the Dog In The Night-Time, and this blog will look at Christopher’s interaction with the police and how the law would affect the situation if something similar happened to you here in Wales. When he finds his neighbour’s dog dead, Christopher sets off to unravel the mystery of who was responsible, whilst writing his own murder mystery novel. The Curious Incident of the Dog In The Night-Time by Mark Haddon is a book that follows the journey of 15 year old Christopher, who has autism.
