Children have the right to maintain personal relations with their ascendants. Only the interests of the child may prevent the exercise of this right. If it is in the child’s interests, the family court judge shall determine the terms and conditions of relations between the child and a third party, whether a parent or not, in particular where that third party has resided on a stable basis with the child…
The child must not be separated from his or her brothers and sisters, unless this is not possible or if his or her interests require another solution. Where appropriate, the judge will rule on personal relationships between brothers and sisters.
A child leaving the national territory without being accompanied by a holder of parental authority shall be in possession of an authorisation to leave the territory signed by a holder of parental authority. A decree in the Conseil d’Etat shall determine the conditions of application of this article. .
The father and mother exercise parental authority jointly. Parental authority is exercised jointly in the case provided for in article 342-11. However, where parentage is established with regard to one of them more than one year after the birth of a child whose parentage is already established with regard to the other, the latter remains solely vested with the exercise of parental authority.

If one of the father and mother dies or is deprived of the exercise of parental authority, the other shall exercise this authority alone, unless he or she has been deprived of it by a previous court decision.
The separation of the parents has no effect on the rules governing the devolution of parental authority. Each of the father and mother must maintain a personal relationship with the child and respect the child’s ties with the other parent. To this end, by way of exception, at the request of the person directly concerned or the family court judge, the public prosecutor may request the assistance of the police…
If the interests of the child so require, the judge may entrust the exercise of parental authority to one of the two parents. The exercise of rights of access and accommodation may only be refused to the other parent on serious grounds. When, in accordance with the interests of the child, the continuity and effectiveness of the child’s ties with the parent who does not exercise parental authority so require,…
I.-In the event of separation between the parents, or between the parents and the child, the contribution to the child’s maintenance and education takes the form of maintenance paid, as appropriate, by one of the parents to the other, or to the person to whom the child has been entrusted.
