More benevolent juveniles in Germany (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

kinder

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'more benevolent' is the definition.
('kind' can be similar in meaning to 'benevolent')

'juveniles in germany' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'in' is present in the answer.
'germany' could be 'de' (standard two letter abbreviation - Deutschland) and 'de' is found within the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for kinder that I've seen before include "More considerate and helpful" , "with less severity" , "More agreeable" , "Scout may follow this" , "German children" .)
