摘要

本文概述了三种广泛的模式,它们为法律和儿童参与决策之间的关系提供了信息——财产/工具主义方法、福利方法和基于权利的方法。它确定并批评了当代法律实践,这些实践规范了儿童的决策,违反了基于权利的方法所要求的标准。重点放在三个方面——(i)法定的最低年龄规则;(ii)推定年龄限制,以及(iii)涉及儿童的个人决策,其中Gillick能力原则和法院的父母管辖权之间经常存在相互作用。提出的关键论点是,基于权利的方法在某些条件下容忍最低年龄规则和推定年龄限制。基于权利的方法也与Gillick能力原则密切一致,但对如何在整个童年时期支持和支持儿童的决策提供了更深入、更细致的见解。最后,一种基于权利的方法也为如何发展以保护儿童为历史重点的普通法法院的父系管辖权,以更好地保护儿童的权利和决策自主权提供了新的见解。

Law and Children’s Decision Making: What Is the Rights Approach?
This paper outlines three broad models that have informed the relationship between the law and children’s involvement in decision making—the property/instrumentalist approach, the welfare approach, and a rights-based approach. It identifies and critiques contemporary legal practices that regulate children’s decision making against the standards required under a rights-based approach. The focus is on three contexts—(i) statutory bright line minimum age rules; (ii) presumptive age limits, and (iii) individual decision making involving children where there is often an interplay between the principle of Gillick competency and the parens patriae jurisdiction of a court. The key arguments advanced are that a rights-based approach tolerates minimum age rules and presumptive age limits under certain conditions. A rights-based approach also aligns closely with the principle of Gillick competency but offers a deeper and more nuanced insight into how to enable and support decision making with children across childhood. Finally, a rights-based approach also offers novel insights into how the parens patriae jurisdiction of common law courts, with its historical emphasis on the protection of children, could be developed to better protect children’s rights and decisional autonomy.
