Children are only explicitly mentioned in the Basic Law as the subject of the norm and the object of parental care. The thesis explores both the existence and formulation of fundamental rights in relation to children according to the case law of the Federal Constitutional Court as well as the underlying fundamental rights dogmatics of the Court. In this way, an overall picture of the current constitutional status of the child in Germany is established. The study aims to shed light on the controversy in the points that have been insufficiently addressed so far and to resolve underlying misunderstandings. Finally, it serves to clarify the constitutional status of children in Germany.
