Grandmother ordered to delete Facebook photos under GDPR

Yeah, that was my point. If a parent feels that they have to sue, i.e. if they feel the state's assistance is necessary to get their child to comply with their wishes—then that's because they're in a situation where parenting isn't working / they don't have any of their own leverage over their child "left."

And if they're in such a situation, then what do they expect the state to do? The state, in the end, only relies on their leverage. (Except in certain exceptional circumstances, like if a child is reported as being suicidal.)

I don't know elsewhere, but in Spain social services can take children from their parents if they're not being taking care of properly. And that doesn't necessarily mean that the parents are to blame. So if the parents can't control the children, they can tell government: we can't hold them anymore, their behaviour is antisocial and we can't take responsability if they commit a crime.
