Wer ist in Deutschland hauptsächlich verantwortlich für die Kindererziehung?Who is primarily responsible for child-rearing in Germany?
Options
- der Staatthe state
- die Elternthe parents
- die Verwandtenthe relatives
- die Schulenthe schools
Explanation
German constitutional law (Art. 6 GG) assigns the principal responsibility for a child’s education and care to the parents. Public institutions such as schools supplement this role but cannot replace parental authority unless a court limits it for child-protection reasons. Therefore parents remain the main decision-makers in everyday upbringing.
