Summary/Abstract: There are two opposite tendencies in contemporary family law. On the one hand, public authorities interfere with the exercise of parental responsibility, primarily through social welfare services and the court system. On the other hand, there are demands for family autonomy, expressed as the need of family members to free themselves from formal control over their family life. This paper intends to explore the borderline between family decisions on child education and when the best interests of the child regarding education are considered by the public authorities.
