YSGOL GWYNLLYW "Children should be seen and not heard". Ai dyma’n delfryd? Ai dyma beth sy’n digwydd yn ein cymdeithas ar hyn o bryd? On’d oes gennym ni, ieuenctid Cymru ac ieuenctid y byd, yr hawl i leisio’n barn, i gael ein cymryd o ddifrif, ac i gael ein parchu a’n trin yn gyfartal? "Children should be seen and not hears". Is this our ideal? Is this what happens in our society todya? Haven't we, the youth of Wales and the world, got the right to express our opinion, to be taken seriously, and to be respected and treated equally? Diolch i fudiadau fel yr NSPCC a Childline, mae help ar gael 24 awr y dydd i oresgyn problemau fel bwlio a hiliaeth a phroblemau teuluol megis merched ifanc yn beichiogi, beichiogrwydd annisgwyl, a chamdrin corfforol, rhywiol ac emosiynol. Thanks to organisations such as the NSPCC and Childline, help is at hand 24 hours a day to overcome problems such as bullying and racism, and family problems such as young girls becoming pregnant, unplanned pregnancies, physical, emotional and sexual abuse. Yn ôl arbenigwyr, mae tuag un ym mhob deg o blant yn cael ei gamdrin. Yn wyneb ystadegau fel y rhain, dylid annog plant i droi at y mudiadau hyn, fel y cânt rywun i wrando arnynt pan fo angen. According to experts, approximately one in every ten children is abused. In the face of statistics like these, children should be encouraged to contact these organisations, so that they have an ear to listen to their problems. Rhaid cydnabod bod y problemau yma yn bodoli ers blynyddoedd, ac yn anffodus fe fyddant yn dal gennym yn y dyfodol. Eleni, mae Childline wedi helpu eu miliynfed plentyn, gydag oddeutu 3,500 o blant yn derbyn cymorth a chefnogaeth bob dydd, wrth i 120 o dimau ledled Cymru, Lloegr a Gogledd Iwerddon wneud ymchwil, a darparu llyfrau a phamffledi ar fwlio, er mwyn addysgu pobl am yr angen i sicrhau bod llais ymgyrchol ac annibynnol ar ran plant. Yn debyg i Childline, y mae’r NSPCC yn cynnig llinell ffôn 24 awr yn rhad ac am ddim. Ond yr NSPCC yw’r unig elusen a awdurdodir gan y gyfraith i ymgyrchu ar ran plant. Er mwyn gwireddu eu gweledigaeth heriol ar gyfer y dyfodol mae’r NSPCC yn dibynnu ar eich rhoddion chi, rhoddion y cyhoedd. Dibynna’r mudiad hwn ar roddion gwirfoddol am 85% o’i incwm, felly mae eich cefnogaeth chi yn hanfodol. It must be recognised that these problems are not new; they have existed for many years and unfortunately they'll still be with us in the future. This year Childline has helped its millionth child, with some 3,500 children receiving assistance and support daily. Childline has 120 teams working throughout Wales, England and Northern Ireland, and they have been researching and providing books and pamphlets on bullying, in order to educate people about the need to provide an independent and campaigning voice on behalf of the children. Like Childline, the NSPCC provides a free 24 hour helpline, but the NSPCC is the only charity with the legal authority to campaign on behalf of children. In order to realise their challenging vision for the future, the NSPCC depends on you, the public, for your donations. This organisation depends on voluntary donations for 85% of its income, so your support is crucial. Rydym ni, disgyblion Ysgol Gwynllyw, yn galw arnoch chi, ieuenctid Cymru, i ymuno yn y frwydr yn erbyn creulondeb trwy’r byd.
