The Constitution of Estonia refers to marriage through the concept of family. Article 27 of the Constitution talks about the family as the basis for survival and development of the nation and society, and that family is under the protection of the state. He then points out that husbands and wives have equal rights, parents have the right and duty to raise and care for their children, and that the family has a duty to care for its members in times of need. The case of Estonia shows that legal recognition of same-sex couples is still a controversial topic. Moreover, it emphasizes that this issue was not resolved by the adoption of the law in 2014 in a comprehensive manner.
