According to the Supreme Court judgment of October 12, 1977 (II CR 390/77) the impossibility of the adoptive parents to have an educational impact on the adolescent adoptive person, her involvement in a criminal environment, prostitution and contracting a venereal disease, alcohol abuse, theft, demoralization of peers in the educational facility, running away from home and from the educational facility, staying in a sobering-up center, which had a negative impact on the health of the adoptive parents, constitutes an important reason for terminating the adoption relationship.
The assessment of the concept of the child’s welfare cannot be made in isolation from the age of the adoptive person and the legitimate and legally protected interests of her adoptive parents. It is impossible to expect them to tolerate the humiliation and even damage to health suffered by her current behavior in the name of the abstract good of an adolescent girl to whom they have selflessly devoted over 13 years of personal effort, trouble and expense. These circumstances also speak against maintaining the adoptive parents’ obligation to pay maintenance.
