This is the way most bibtex styles work (and I learned, it is the "normal"
way it is done in English). As this is a problem  with German titles (where
you need to keep the Capitalization of Nouns) all German bibtexers know the
workaround

  in the bibtex file *.bib
  ...
   title = {{E}ltern und {K}inder}
  ...
 
Bibtex will leave all capitalizations in {} unchanged.
However, if you one happy day want to change the way the reference looks,
you had to change all your bib entries :-(, so a "proper" bibstyle might be
better.

Again, you might change this in the *.bib file, but this would be just a
workaround, no solution.

Try btxhak.tex, that comes with bibtex.
