Mizulina: more than two million fakes about mobilization have been circulated on the WebAccording to the bill, the removal of a child from the family will take place only by a court decision. The document introduces the principle of presumption of good faith of parents. The right of a child to a native family means that in all cases of absence of parents, temporarily or permanently, his right to live and be brought up in his own family, the family of his relatives, is guaranteed.
The politician wrote in her Telegram channel that the bill is not about the removal of children, it is about something else. “On the protection of the family from unreasonable interference in its internal affairs; on the state’s trust in parents and on the attitude towards parents as conscientious, unless otherwise proven in court,” the senator emphasized.
According to her, the document offers the family and parents six measures to protect the child in those life cases when parents (especially the only one) cannot provide childcare for some time for good reasons – work on a rotational basis, a business trip, the need for hospitalizations and more.
“The bill provides for the right for parents to involve relatives and other persons close to the family for these purposes without special registration of their rights; issue a notarized consent to the exercise of the powers of the legal representative of the child to close relatives (grandparents, adult brothers and sisters) of the child for the period of absence of parents ( this solves the problems of providing medical care to children, receiving education by children during the stay of children with them),” the parliamentarian explained.
The draft also provides a list of cases in which rapid response measures can be applied, calling them “temporary measures of protection,” she added.
“The bill provides for the removal of a child, but only on the basis of a court decision that has entered into force to deprive parents of parental rights or to restrict parental rights,” Mizulina stressed. According to her, in the document “the family and the state are not opponents, but partners.”
