This isn't about a child's absolute right to privacy, it's about the admissability of evidence. I seriously doubt a child could sue his or her parents for listening in on a conversation; but for a third party who's convicted of a crime based on overheard evidence, this amounts to a technicality about how evidence is obtained. It's a shame that they've framed it in terms of a minor's right to privacy instead of evidentiary standards.
