Despite deficits

Premature baby not allowed to stay in kindergarten

Christof, now five years old, had a life-threatening illness and therefore still needs more help than other children. That's why his dedicated parents fought for their boy to be allowed to stay in kindergarten for another year - in vain. How do the municipality and the authorities justify this? We asked them.

Christof (5) did not have an easy start in life. He was born three months before his due date, followed by a lung and brain haemorrhage - life-threatening. "But he made it," says his father Hermann Holzmüller (46) from Prambachkirchen. The tiny little human turned into a bright boy who has been attending the Caritas kindergarten in his home community for two years as an integrated child.
