In medical treatments, the informed consent decided by the patient is the inevitable factor for the property of the physicians' actions to law.
It is absolutely visible that the consent of a child for a medical treatment is very important when the medical treatments and the close relation between having a longer life and health problems in childhood are carefully considered.
In our country there are currently medical treatments applied to children without getting the consent of them, instead by just getting the required permission from the parents. It is an inevitable rule of the modern world to get the informed consent of a child together with her/his parents as long as the child can understand the implications of the medical treatment and is capable to state her/his ideas against the circumstances.Keywords: Consent, Informed consent, Child,
