Summary/Abstract: Although civil law is intended to protect any person, primarily, the institution of protection of the individual only targets certain categories of individuals, in particular, those who, for certain reasons, are unable to exercise their subjective civil rights independently, but are not allowed to do so, for reasons that imply no other but their protection. However, the first and most important kind of protection that must be granted to the minor is the one that is provided by his biological parents, and if this is not possible for various reasons, their mission is taken over by the so-called parents created through the fiction of the law (tutors, curators, authorized guardians, educational parents, even by adoptive parents who, like all the others listed above, have the quality of “step-guardians”. Thus, the content of parental protection has two sides: one personal, which concerns the intellectual, moral and spiritual development of the minor, and the second side, concerns the patrimonial aspect which consists in providing the necessary support for concluding legal acts that have the effect of increasing or decreasing the minor’s patrimony.
