EU countries split over Commission’s plan to give parents cross-border rights

The initiative, according to which parentage links established in one EU country would be acknowledged in all member states could create divisions across the bloc due to the inclusion of rainbow families. Commissioner for Justice Didier Reynders asks member states “to have the interest of the child as their concern” to prevent unfair consequences for children in terms of free movement, healthcare, and education.
