Article 137
Titre VIII:
De la Puissance paternelle
(On Paternal Authority)
En cas de mécontentement grave excité par la conduite d'un enfant, le père aura recours aux voies de correction ci-après.

The father's right to correct is not unlimited — it follows the paths the law provides. Even parental discipline answers to a framework.
Notes:
Introduction to the paternal correction system. 'Grave dissatisfaction' is the threshold. The specific corrective measures are detailed in the following articles. Channels paternal discipline through legal processes rather than leaving it entirely to private authority.
