Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the appeal court violated the child hearing requirement by not hearing the younger child C.
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. C. had not yet reached the age at which a hearing is generally required, and no special reasons justified an exception.
Extrahierte Begründung
Art. 314 ZGB requires personal hearing unless age or important reasons oppose it. The Court reaffirmed the guideline that the duty to hear generally starts at age six. C. had not reached that threshold, and the appellant offered no specific reason for a hearing.
