Question 11015 — family

Summary

Ms. Manon Bouquin draws the attention of the Keeper of the Seals, Minister of Justice, to the need to guarantee the preservation of the best interests of the child in the event of a conflictual separation between the parents. Each year, nearly 200,000 children in France are affected by parental separation. According to DRESS and INSEE, only 12% of them live in shared residences, while around a quarter grow up in a family. single parent with no connection to their father. Although the Civil Code has enshrined the principle of co-parenting for more than twenty years, these figures reflect a real imbalance. The model of alternating residence as a reference principle has demonstrated its effectiveness abroad: in Belgium, Spain and the Nordic countries, the rates of alternating residence are two to three times higher than in France. Switzerland and Monaco are also committed in this way. Beyond equity between parents and the preservation of the child's emotional bond with each of them, alternating residence contributes, according to INED, to improving the employment of mothers and strengthening the financial balance of single-parent families. Thus, she asks him what measures the Government plans to implement to promote parental equality after a separation, to train magistrates in an evaluation objective consideration of the best interests of the child and support the establishment of a balanced framework for alternating residence.
