Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the right to be heard was violated because the decision gave insufficient reasons regarding the children's hearing.
Extrahierter Entscheid
No violation was established; the children's hearing served to inform the authority, not to let very young children express a view on custody removal.
Extrahierte Begründung
Given the children's ages, the hearing aimed at fact-finding and the authority's own assessment, not at obtaining a decisive opinion from them; the appellants also failed to show any procedural defect in the hearing itself.
