Summary/Abstract: In light of the Convention on Children’s Rights adopted by the General Assembly of the United Nations in 1989 and ratified afterwards by Romania, the state is obliged to take all corresponding measures to protect the child against any form of violence, harm or abuse, during the time in which the child is found in the care of any person whom they were entrusted to, following which, in all actions undertaken, the child’s superior interest is to prevail. The desire to discover their own past, with the inclusion of the institutional history in the case of children for whom a measure of special protection and of family identity and biological relatives has been disposed, is one of the most natural need of a person who grew up without parental protection, so that it’s satisfaction is imposed without hesitation. On this note, although the state assures a legal framework able to fulfill the desire of children and youngsters to know their own personal history, the bodies which have an essential role in the domain sometimes leave space for arbitration.
