Art. 311 ZGB
Sind andere Kindesschutzmassnahmen erfolglos geblieben oder erscheinen sie von vornherein als ungenügend, so entzieht die Kindesschutzbehörde die elterliche Sorge: 1. wenn die Eltern wegen Unerfahrenheit, Krankheit, Gebrechen, Abwesenheit, Gewalttätigkeit oder ähnlichen Gründen ausserstande sind, die elterliche Sorge pflichtgemäss auszuüben; 2. wenn die Eltern sich um das Kind nicht ernstlich gekümmert oder ihre Pflichten gegenüber dem Kinde gröblich verletzt haben.
Wird beiden Eltern die Sorge entzogen, so erhalten die Kinder einen Vormund.
Die Entziehung ist, wenn nicht ausdrücklich das Gegenteil angeordnet wird, gegenüber allen, auch den später geborenen Kindern wirksam.
