1. Anyone who is legally or contractually obligated to supervise a person in need of supervision because they are a minor or due to their mental or physical condition shall be liable for any damage caused by that person to another by their harmful act. 2. Supervision is required for a minor from their guardian or custodian if they have not reached the age of majority. Supervision over the minor is transferred to their teacher at school or the supervisor of a craft, as long as the minor is under the supervision of the teacher or supervisor. Supervision over a minor wife is transferred to her husband or the person who undertakes the supervision of the husband. 3. The person responsible for supervision may be absolved of liability if they prove that they have fulfilled their duty of supervision with the necessary care or that the harm would have occurred even if they had fulfilled this duty.
