La filiation juridique se distingue ainsi de la filiation affective dite sociologique. Cette dernière n’a pas d’existence légale faute d’être officiellement constatée. La filiation juridique correspond normalement à la filiation par le sang [...] Mais le droit admet aussi qu’un lien de filiation artificiel soit créé entre un enfant et une personne ou un couple qui lui sont génétiquement étrangers : c’est la filiation adoptive. 2, record 16, French, - filiation%20juridique

«transfert» : [...] il faut éviter de désigner sous le nom de «versement» l'opération qui consiste à transférer les papiers des bureaux des administrations dans les dépôts de préarchivage.

Pour ce juge, l'autorité parentale est un devoir conjoint : chaque parent est concerné par la garde des enfants mais aussi par la surveillance et l'éducation de ceux-ci. Sa décision?
