Art. 296 ZGB
Die elterliche Sorge dient dem Wohl des Kindes.
Die Kinder stehen, solange sie minderjährig sind, unter der gemeinsamen elterlichen Sorge von Vater und Mutter.
Minderjährigen Eltern sowie Eltern unter umfassender Beistandschaft steht keine elterliche Sorge zu. Werden die Eltern volljährig, so kommt ihnen die elterliche Sorge zu. Wird die umfassende Beistandschaft aufgehoben, so entscheidet die Kindesschutzbehörde entsprechend dem Kindeswohl über die Zuteilung der elterlichen Sorge.
