The questions are to be answered on the basis of what is stated or implied in the passage. Choose the most appropriate response that accurately and completely answer the question. Along with the evolution of the family unit, society has willingly accepted the premise that parents have absolute power over their un-emancipated children. In ancient times, parental authority was unconditional and parents were granted the power of life and death over their minor children. As late as the eighteenth century, Americans recognized a parent’s right to unquestioned authority and by the late nineteenth century, the American courts developed the doctrine of parent-child tort immunity. The doctrine was designed to exempt parents from personal liability for tortious acts they committed against their minor child. A parent is immune from a tort suit brought by his child if the suit is for negligence and the minor child is not self-supporting. Also it is to be noted that parents are not immune from suits for intentional torts.
