On Tuesday (28), the House of Representatives approved a draft law that is classified as a “offensive behavior” for parents regarding the origins of their children. The text now goes to the Senate.
The proposal was inspired by the case of actress Larissa Manuella, who in 2023 revealed in an interview that she withdrew from her parents after conflicts on financial issues. According to the actress, the dispute was linked to the financial management of its professional life, which was under the responsibility of the family members.
At that time, Larissa Manuella officially decided to break the relations with her parents in the legal scope, and relinquished royal rights estimated at $ 18 million. The procedure to protect their rights and financial independence, and now, with the approval of the proposal, seeks to ensure that similar positions are not repeated in cases of manipulation or financial abuse by family members.

The draft law was approved 3.914/23, written by Silvye Alves (Union-G), for the purpose of protecting goods management from children and adolescents, which prevents the abuse of parents who benefit from their children. The proposal proves that, after two years after reaching the age of puberty, children may ask their parents to provide accounts for the asset management that were under their responsibility.
If parents cause damage or damage to the origins of their children, the legislation determines that they are responsible and they must be responsible for the damage. The project also states that in the situations in which parents ’management may pose a danger to the heritage of the child or the teenager, each of the public prosecution service (MP) and the child itself may deliver the case to the court.
The proposal aims to ensure more protection and financial independence of young people, which prevents them from being victims of financial manipulation by family members themselves.
According to the project, the judge can determine:
- Restricting access to financial resources to ensure its use for children or adolescents;
- A special reserve constitution for the evaluation of financial resources to maintain shares;
- Conducting periodic audit in accounts, commodities and relevant investments.
The draft law inspired by the actress as an alternative, which is, with amendments to the course, Rosangla Moro (UNIãO-SP)-which was excluded from criminal models, was approved, adding that cases are resolved by judicial measures.
The proposal also talks about the companies that any parent is in conjunction with their children.
Parents cannot:
- Buy or abandon rights related to shares, companies risks, precious things and securities
- Holding in the name of underage obligations that exceed the minor management limits
