When a man and a woman come together in order to form a family entity shall assume the responsibilities of this group . And those who freely and spontaneously decide to take on parenthood , or even just " contributed " to the pregnancy of a child, should also be required of a responsibility that transcends the familiar power. Should monitor, protect , educate and teach appropriate for a good citizen behaviors, so that the minor child learn to discern right from wrong and thus act in a manner that contributes to a peaceful and harmonious living in society, respecting and not invading the rights of others. Should be aware that more than financial providers, they should be examples of dignity to the lowest, this, irrespective of whether or not living under the same roof. Objective is therefore to analyze the institution of civil liability, more specifically the responsibility of parents for torts committed by the minor child. The option is therefore to use the method of deductive approach, using still the method of historical procedure, in view of the need to analyze the institution of responsibility over time, beyond the legal exegetical, interpretive use of the laws and case law, together with the technique of indirect research, founded in bibliographic collection, enabling the purposes for which they were chosen. Notwithstanding the constant discussion about the topic, this study proposes the defense of the imputation of strict liability to parents for unlawful acts committed by the minor child as a means to prevent shy away from the obligation of which they are holders.
