Question 11918 — children

Summary

Mr. Pouria Amirshahi draws the attention of the Minister of Health, Families, Autonomy and People with Disabilities to particularly serious facts of mistreatment revealed in a Parisian ASE home managed by the Jean-Cotxet association. A video broadcast on December 9, 2025 by Franceinfo shows a child whose head is forcibly shaved by an educator, with the obvious aim of humiliating him. According to several elements rendered public, this practice would have been presented as “corporal punishment” inflicted on the minor. These facts, recorded in February 2025, did not, however, give rise to any disciplinary sanctions, either against the educator in question or her hierarchy. Furthermore, it appears that no internal investigation has been initiated by the managing association. This situation deeply questions the capacity of the protection structures of childhood to guarantee the safety, dignity and integrity of the minors entrusted to them. Even though the children monitored by the ASE are among the most vulnerable in the Republic, these failures, if confirmed, constitute a serious attack on the child protection mission. He therefore asks him to specify what immediate measures the Government intends to take to ensure that any situation of mistreatment reported in an ESA home is subject to systematic, rapid and transparent internal investigations. Also, he wishes to know what additional means will be deployed to strengthen the control of authorized associative structures and, in this context, what actions will be undertaken to improve coordination between departmental services, public prosecutor's offices and State services to prevent situations of mistreatment may remain unanswered for several months.
