Parties shall respect the right of the child who is separated from one or both parents to maintain relations and contact with both parents. Where such separation results from any action by a State, that State shall provide the child with information concerning the whereabouts of the absent member (s).
★不得與父母分離：若兒童不得已與父母分離時，有權與父母保持聯繫；若因居留、監禁或死亡等因素造成分離，國家有責任將父母之相關訊息提供給兒童親屬。★禁止非法讓渡兒童：國家應保護兒童免於被父母或其他關係人誘拐。
