Excerpt from Children of Illegitimate Birth and Measures for Their Protection Support is sometimes obtained without court action through the efforts of social agencies or otherwise. However, studies have shown that the father's responsibility for the support of his child is assumed in only a small proportion of the cases coming to the attention of social agencies, and usually only to a limited extent.
