The journalist of Akademska beba web portal portal of the Student Association of the University of Novi Sad, Anđela Zec, researched the positions and rights of student parents in Germany and in Serbia. Student parents, as a special population group, are not recognised in the special legal framework at the federal level in Germany, nor at the level of the provinces, and they exercise their rights, primarily the right to parental allowance, through current national laws.
