Short description: Law requiring the consent of a parent before their child engages in a certain activity
Parental consent laws (also known as parental involvement laws)[1] in some countries require that one or more parents consent to or be notified before their minor child[2] can legally engage in certain activities.
Parental consent may refer to:
- A parent's right to give consent, or be informed, before their minor child undergoes medical treatment.[3] See informed consent for such legislation in general, or minors and abortion[4] for legislation relating specifically to abortion.[5]
- Some jurisdictions stop short of requiring parental consent for abortion but require parental notification.[6]
- A parent's right to give consent before their minor child undergoes body modification such as piercing or tattooing.[7]
- A parent's right to consent to their minor child marrying before they reach marriageable age.
- A parent's right to be involved in their minor child's education, including the right to approve or disapprove of certain curricula, or to consent to extracurricular activities and field trips.[8]
