THE PARENTS' RIGHT TO INHERIT OF THEIR CHILD

Abstract

The aim of this research was to study the parents’ attribute and their right of having inherited from their child. The parents entitled of having inherited from their child are parents who married on registration. If the marriage ends with the death of the spouse, divorce or the court ruled for revocation, the legitimate parents’ right still stay. If the parents do not marry on registration, only mother is legitimate mother. The father can be legitimated father by having registered the marriage certificate later and the certificate can be active back to the child’s date of birth. In case of surrogate mother, even though she gives birth to the child, she is not deemed legitimate mother under Protection of a Child Born by Medically Assisted Reproductive Technology Act, B.E 2558. So she will not have inherited from the child.
