I use this approach because I have already the function which does 2). Now I browsed through the ObjectManager API, but I cannot find a way to delete a certain child-object. How can I do that?

Assuming 'parent_folder' is a variable holding the parent folder object of what you are trying to delete and 'id' is the id of what you want to delete, I think this is what you want...

parent_folder.manage_delObjects(id) Almost - note the plural:

"manage_delObjects" needs a sequence of ids. Therefore, you need to use parent_folder.manage_delObjects([id]) Dieter
