These possibilities are enshrined in the second part, Title III., § 928 - § 975 of the Civil Code of the Czech Republic. In order to derive recommendations for the Czech legal system, particularly with regard to the work overload of judges for minors in the Czech Republic, these regulations will subsequently be compared to the legal situation in France which is mainly determined by the Code civil and the Code de l'action sociale et des familles.

The thesis focuses on the issues concerning development of reproductive behaviour in the Czech Republic and basic socio-demographic and economic indicators which affect this behaviour. The main aim of the thesis is to identify key socio-demographic and economic factors which affect attitudes and reality in the reproductive behaviour in the Czech Republic. It describes changes in the demographic structure and reproductive behaviour as well as changes in and consequences of population development. The analytical method used was a questionnaire and the data provided by this questionnaire were analysed with the help of word dependence and comparison. The questionnaire results proved that in ideal living conditions respondents would like to have more children than in reality. Reality is far from ideal and it is particularly caused by relationships between partners and by economic situation of respondents. However, most respondents prefer to have two children, which in terms of natural renewal of the population is not sufficient. It is important for today's demographic development to support an economically active population with three or more children. The questionnaire results are described in tables with a commentary and conclusion enclosed.
