Kernrechtsfrage
Whether a divorce court may order a father to undergo psychotherapy as a child-protection measure
Extrahierter Entscheid
Such an order is permissible only if it directly serves the child's welfare; an order aimed primarily at helping the father lacks a child-protection basis.
Extrahierte Begründung
Art. 307 ZGB allows measures to protect the child only against a concrete endangerment of the child's welfare. The KJPD recommendation concerned the father's own processing of loss and was not framed as a child-protection measure. Its effect on the children was at most indirect, so it could not justify an intrusion into the father's personal freedom.
