Question

paul and emilka have a child together. if paul decides to leave emilka and the baby, how will his legal obligations change?
○ he will need to provide child support.
○ he will no longer be the legal father
○ he will no longer have a legal obligation.
○ he will need to get custody of the child.

Explanation:

In family law (a subfield of Law under Social Science), a parent's legal obligation to support their child typically persists even if they leave the family unit. Being the legal father is established by parentage (not changed by leaving), and leaving doesn't mean no legal obligations or a requirement to get custody. So Paul would still have the obligation to provide child support.

Answer:

A. He will need to provide child support.
